Goal Setting in 2018
“New Year, New Me.” We’ve all seen this year after year, but what about “New Year, New Millionaire!?” In addition to setting those weight loss and career-related goals, let’s remember to set some financial goals for 2018 and accelerate the journey to that millionaire status!
Strong goals are SMART goals. When writing out your plans for 2018, make sure they are
S – Specific
M – Measurable
A – Achievable
R – Relevant
T – Time Bound.
The most common *first goal as a member would be to erase debt. In order to make this a SMART goal, one needs to word it in a way similar to this: “This year, I will eliminate all of my third-party debts, so, that I can enjoy the freedom my income and assets bring.” It’s Specific, all right! It’s Measurable, (getting from where you are in the negative $$$, to positive $$$). You’d also need to make sure this is Achievable. Ask yourself or our Mapping (Implementation) Specialist, “Will I have enough loan funds available to pay the debt off by that time?” This goal includes a caveat that makes is Relevant to you, (helping you to remember why this is important). Add to it a Time Bound stamp, (i.e, by December 31, 2018) and you’ve completed the task!
