Teens! Crushing Your Goals with a SMART Twist šŸŽÆ


Goals are like treasure maps—they lead to awesome things but only if you can read them.

The problem? A lot of us scribble something vague like ā€œBe more confidentā€ and hope for the best.

Spoiler alert: that’s not how you find treasure.

Enter SMART goals—your trusty GPS for getting where you want to go. šŸ—ŗļø

What Makes a Goal SMART?

  1. Specific: Instead of ā€œMake friends,ā€ aim for ā€œChat with two new people this week.ā€
  2. Measurable: Can you track it? Like counting those two chats or noting how many times you smiled during a convo. 😊
  3. Achievable: No need to shoot for the moon just yet. Start with small wins to build momentum.
  4. Relevant: Make sure your goals actually align with what you want (not what everyone else says you should do).
  5. Time-Bound: Deadlines are your BFF. ā€œBy Friday, I’ll….ā€ sets your plan into action.

Keep Tabs on Your Progress

Think of your goals as quests in a game.

Check your inventory (journal) to see what’s working and what needs tweaking.

And don’t forget to celebrate every little victory—it’s all adding up to something big. šŸ†

The Bigger Picture

Setting SMART goals isn’t just about ticking boxes. It’s about creating a life you’re excited to live.

So go ahead, map out your dreams, and watch as you transform ā€œsomedayā€ into ā€œdone.ā€
