I am going to try to use the SMART method of goal setting.

Original Thread here: (Good Reference and Read)

In the original post It says 6 W’s but lists only 5w’s for the “S” (Specific step) So, I checked out the internet and found 2 legitimate formulas for the “S” (Specific step) of SMART method of goal setting. 5w’s and 6W’s. I like the 5 W’s so that’s the one I’m going to use.

What are the 5 W's in SMART goal setting?

Specific. The first step in the SMART goal setting process is to be as specific as possible with your goal. We recommend addressing the 5 Ws when making a goal specific: why, what, when, who, where.

What are the 6 W's of SMART goals?
What exactly do you want to accomplish? Be specific. This is a mission statement for your goal rather than a list. Think about the 6 W's (Who, What, When, Where, Which, Why) and identify how this goal will be accomplished.


I didn't see any tricks for prioritizing but I know they are there somewhere because thats the big deal that keeps getting upturned by daily circumstances beyound our control. Lets get started with a shotgun list!
