    Here's How:

    步驟如下：

    1.S stands for specific. Make your goal or objective as specific as possible. Say exactly what you want to achieve in clear, concise words.

    S代表特殊性。盡可能讓你的目標具體化。用簡單明了的句子說出你想要達到的確切目標。

    2.M stands for measurable. Include a unit of measure in your goal. Be objective rather than subjective.

    M代表可測量性。為你的目標制定一套測量系統。客觀而非主觀的對待目標。

    3.A stands for attainable. Be realistic. Make sure your goal is feasible in terms of the resources available to you. You want to grow personally, so reach, but be reasonable or you'll set yourself up for disappointment.

    A代表現實性。人要現實一點。要確保你設立的目標在現有資源的情況下是可以實現的。你想自身有所發展，那么努力吧，但是要設立合情合理的目標，否則最后你只會讓自己失望。

    4.The second A stands for action-oriented. Write your goal or objective in an active, rather than passive, voice. Use an action verb near the beginning of the sentence.

    第2個A是行動導向性。用積極的行動來實現你的目標，而不要只是被動地說說而已。在每個句子的開始都用動詞。

    5.R stands for results-oriented. Focus on the end results you desire rather than the activities necessary to get there.

    R代表著結果導向。將重點放在你想要的最終結果上，而不是行動產生的必然結果上。

    6.T stands for time-phased. Give yourself a deadline within a year. Be specific to the very day if you can.

    T代表著實踐基礎。在一年內給自己規定一個期限。精確到你想要完成的那一天。
