SMART Goal Worksheet 

Remember when you did the SWOT analysis on yourself? We are now going to revisit that, and take some of the areas you identified for improvement and make them SMART goals. Remember, in order for a goal to be SMART, it must be: specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound. Take a look back at the opportunities and threats section of your SWOT analysis, and develop at least three SMART goals around each area you identified.
