Which of the following features makes a goal a SMART goal?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The goal is specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound
A SMART goal contains five commonly used qualities: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Together they clarify the desired result, indicate how progress will be checked, keep the target realistic and meaningful, and provide a deadline. A vague motivational statement, a goal without a time limit, or a goal imposed without personal ownership does not meet all five criteria.
