SMART GOALS

INTRODUCTION

UNLOCK YOUR TRUE POTENTIAL
Welcome, Remarkable Woman! The Creating SMART Goals guide is your passport to a life of purpose and achievement. In this journey, we'll unravel the secrets of SMART goals, guiding you toward a future filled with fulfillment.

UNDERSTANDING SMART Goals:

Your Personal GPS
The term "SMART" stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. These criteria aren't just buzzwords; they are the foundation of goals that resonate and endure.

• S - Specific:
  Clarify your dream. The more detailed, the better. Instead of "start a business," envision "launching an online store for handmade jewelry."

• M - Measurable:
  Define success. Establish metrics that allow you to track progress. For instance, "create and list 20 unique jewelry pieces within three months."

• A - Achievable:
  Make it real. Break your goal into manageable steps. Allocate time, resources, and support to make it feasible.

• R - Relevant:
  Connect to your purpose. Ensure your goal aligns with your values, passions, and long-term vision

• T - Time-bound:
  Set a deadline. This creates urgency and helps you stay focused. "Launch the online store and make the first sale within three months."

CREATING SMART GOAL FOR 2025
Now, let's delve into the heart of goal-setting. Grab a pen and paper; this is where dreams meet action.

• Step 1: Define Your Aspiration
  What is your big dream or goal? Be specific and paint a vivid picture. Example: "I want to start my own online business selling handmade jewelry."

• Step 2: Make It Measurable
  How will you measure your progress? What metrics will indicate success? Example: "I aim to create and list 20 unique jewelry pieces on my online store within the next three months."

• Step 3: Ensure Achievability
  Is your goal realistic and attainable? What steps will you take to make it achievable? Example: "I will dedicate at least 10 hours per week to designing and crafting my jewelry. I'll also take an online course to enhance my business skills."

• Step 4: Relevance to Your Vision
  How does this goal align with your overall vision and values? Example: "Starting my own jewelry business aligns with my passion for creativity and desire for financial independence."

• Step 5: Set a Time Frame
  When do you want to achieve this goal? Set a specific deadline. Example: "I aim to launch my online store and have the first sale within the next three months."

• Step 6: Reflect on Your Progress
  How will you track your progress? What milestones can you celebrate along the way? Example: "I'll keep a weekly journal of my accomplishments, such as completing jewelry pieces and reaching out to potential suppliers."

MEET APRIL CHILDERS

Like you, I'm incredibly proud of my service to our country and am thrilled to leverage the skills I've gained from my time in the military to craft a life filled with purpose and meaning.

Drawing from my own journey,

I never anticipated the hurdles that awaited me upon leaving the military. Over two decades, I honed skills that enabled me not only to endure but to excel in an environment that felt like a second nature. Yet, upon retirement, I found myself adrift, uncertain of my identity and direction. It's often said,

"I didn't know what I didn't know," and that sentiment couldn't have rung truer for me. I was at a loss on where to even begin in transitioning to civilian life.

As you embark on this new chapter, remember to embrace the journey, celebrate your successes, and never underestimate the power of a positive mindset in shaping your future. Here's to your continued success, fulfillment, a and happiness in civilian life. You've got this!

Warm Regards,
April Childers
