How can you tell if you have reached your goal if it is not measurable?

If we go back to the example of Sally wanting to loose weight so she can fit into her dress for the Christmas party we can see that it is measureable because Sally will be able to tell that she has met her goal once has dropped 5kg and she fits into the dress!!

To make it more measurable we could say that Sally wants to loose at least 5kgs by Christmas so that she will fit into her favorite dress in time for the Christmas party.

Some other examples include, increasing your passive income by $100 per week by the end of the year. This is measureable as we can see in our bank account that our income has increased by $100 per week over and above what it was at the time of goal setting.

Making your goals measureable means that when it comes time to review your goals you will know if you have met them or not, there isn’t any doubt as to whether or not the goal was achieved, you either put in the effort and achieved, put in the effort and didn’t achieve for some reason, or didn’t put in the effort and consequently didn’t achieve.

Next we will make sure your goals are attainable…
