SMART
S-SPECIFIC M-MEASURABLE A-ATTAINABLE
R-REALISTIC T-TIMELY
S- Specific• S-specific- A specific goal has a much greater chance of
being accomplished than a general goal. To set a specific goal you must answer the six “W” questions:• *Who: Who is involved?• *What: What do I want to accomplish?• *Where: Identify a location.• *When: Establish a time frame.• *Which: Identify requirements and constraints.• *Why: Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing
the goal.
M- Measurable• Measurable - Establish concrete criteria for measuring
progress toward the attainment of each goal to set.• To measure your progress, To stay on track, reach your target
dates, and experience the exhilaration of achievement that spurs you on to continued effort required to reach your goal.• To determine if the goal is measurable, ask questions such
as……• How much? How many?• How will I know when it is accomplished?
A-Attainable • Attainable – When goals is identify that are most important
things, to begin & figure out ways you can make them come true. To develop the attitudes, abilities, skills, and financial capacity to reach them. begin seeing previously overlooked opportunities to bring closer to the achievement of your goals.• You can attain most any goal you set when you plan your steps
wisely and establish a time frame that allows you to carry out those steps. Goals that may have seemed far away and out of reach eventually move closer and become attainable
R- Realistic & T- Timely Realistic• To be a realistic, a goal must represent an objective toward which you are both willing and
able to work. A goal can be both high and realistic. every goal represent a substantial progress.
• A high goal is frequently easier to reach than a low one because a low goal exerts low motivational forces
Timely • A goal should be grounded within a time frame. With no time frame tied to it there’s
no sense of urgency. • Goal is probably realistic if you truly believe that it can be accomplished.• Additional ways to know if your goal is realistic is to determine if you have
accomplished anything similar in the past or ask yourself what conditions would have to exist to accomplish this goal.
What is Profitability ratio• A profitability ratio is a measure of profitability, which is a way
to measure a company's performance. Profitability is simply the capacity to make a profit, and a profit is what is left over from income earned after deducted all costs and expenses related to earning the income
