    When you next run a project take a moment to consider whether your goals are SMART goals.
    To quote renowned American philanthropist Elbert Hubbard:
    "Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage, but simply because they have never
    organised their energies around a goal."
    SMART Goals
    Specific
    Well defined.
    Clear to anyone that has a basic knowledge of the project.
    Measurable
    Know if the goal is obtainable and how far away completion is.
    Know when it has been achieved.
    Agreed Upon
    Agreement with all the stakeholders what the goals should be.
    Realistic
    Within the availability of resources, knowledge and time.
    Time-Based
    Enough time to achieve the goal.
    Not too much time, which can affect project performance.
