Reply To: Using S.M.A.R.T Goals
I’ve struggled with the “T” as well.
In fact, I don’t use it.
I’ve learned that I’m not a very good judge of how long things take.
Tasks typically take me a lot longer to do, and I have no control over the results.
SMART assumes that you do.
It’s a myth.
So you have to commit yourself to a path, and then stay with it long enough for it to produce the results you want.
And it may be that it will take three months or six months for you to get enough exposure to determine that it isn’t working.
But every entrepreneur has to discover what that length of time is for him / her.
It will be different for you.
