And Iโ€™ll teach you how.

For years, weโ€™ve been told to set SMART goalsโ€”Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. Sounds great in theory.

But hereโ€™s the problem: Most SMART goals set you up to fail.

Why? Because they focus on structure, not execution.

They tell you what a goal should look like but say nothing about what happens when:

โŒ Life gets in the way.
โŒ You lose motivation.
โŒ Priorities shift.
โŒ You hit a roadblock.

This is why I teach SMARTER goals instead:

โœ… S โ€“ Specific (Vague goals lead nowhere.)
โœ… M โ€“ Measurable (If you canโ€™t track it, you canโ€™t improve it.)
โœ… A โ€“ Achievable (Big goals are great, but they need to be realistic.)
โœ… R โ€“ Relevant (If it doesnโ€™t align with your bigger picture, why bother?)
โœ… T โ€“ Time-bound (Deadlines create urgency.)
โœ… E โ€“ Evaluate (Regular check-ins prevent failure.)
โœ… R โ€“ Realign or Reward (Adapt when needed OR celebrate progress.)

Hereโ€™s the truth: Most goals fail because they are set and forgotten.
Without evaluation, realignment, or rewards, your goal becomes just another abandoned resolution.

So, be honest: Are you setting SMARTER goals or just checking boxes?

Letโ€™s hear itโ€”whatโ€™s one goal youโ€™re working on, and how are you keeping it alive?
