I have always struggled with SMART goals, but omg changing the letters around! GIRL! Literally made this seem so much more accessible- in my case, I think of actions as the last part, so I think I would actually think about these as SRTMA goals…lol not as cute but it makes sense to me. Thank you for that!!!
O. M. G. This was SO perfectly timed for me. I am getting back into a business for myself that is going to take up a lot of my time and my husband is not used to me being busy anymore. There are so many pieces in this video that are relevant for me. Thank you so much!! ❤❤❤❤
Rachelle this video was fantastic as always. Also may I say, you look so glowing, healthy and happy in this video. You shared in your goal setting videos that you were focusing on wellness this year and it’s so obvious you have been consistent. This is so inspiring to me!
Such a great video! One thing i will add is if there are personal things you like to do but are not really a priority, first try and see if there’s a way to incorporate them into your goal. Re: I’m learning 3 languages right now but i also love watching TV and movies so i try to watch things in my target language so I’m still learning but not totally giving up something i really enjoy!
There’s nothing on SMART goals that says you need to write the goal following the acronym order. But I understand what you did here, after all, to be successfully one should adapt productivity advice to its own needs 😀
True!! I think people will read an acronym and write it out in the order they see it, and try to follow from that order though. But people are already inventing their own SRAMT, SMTRA, TARSN acronyms in the comments, which I love 🥰
I really love your take on these things! Especially since there is always a mention about self care and taking into account our energy levels. It resonates a lot with me. Another video of yours in my UA-cam playlist on organization! 🥰
I love SMART goals, but instead of moving the letters around, I just change what they mean for me: Specific Motivated Actionable Realistic and Time-Bound. It's not perfect - if measuring is something that you're not doing in your realistic check it might not work as well, but I've gotten a lot of good use out of them!
Great video but what about obstacles that may get in the way? Like I am learning to plan around my depression thanks to your videos. Like how do you bounce back from a setback for your goals?
I think there are two important answers to this. 1. Rather than thinking “what will I do if there is a setback,” it’s better to think “what will I do WHEN there is a setback,” and to know that setbacks are totally okay. Planning can reduce them, but it doesn’t eliminate them. 2. The easy answer is “know setbacks are part of the process and growth isn’t linear.” A setback or obstacle isn’t a failure, just a part of the journey. Try again tomorrow.
I hate measurable. I can’t get past measurable. And time bound. I feel like good enough is good enough whenever you can make it happen, so SMART goals make me feel lazy before I even write them. Can’t get past it.
super silly thought/comment: that part somewhere in 14:50 about how you can't just cut off your partner completely like a psycho is really making me giggle imagining you just out of nowhere not talking to or contacting them and them being very confused and u say oh it's just that i'm studying spanish, really important, so ta or something. idk i'm just so amused by the thought
I don't agree. Longer videos are more value-packed, and personally I find her videos short enough to watch in one sitting but long enough to go in-depth into each topic.

I was thinking STRAM would be best for me! This video really reminded us we have free will to do it the way that makes sense individually!
Heck yeah!! SRTMA forever!
Omgg same !! Smarter goals made sense when people spoke about it , but could never make it work for me when I actually tried to make a goal smart
I love how these come out on Sundays when im planning the week ahead!
Came here to say this lol. Planning while watching Rachel's new (or old unseen one) video is a highlight of my Sunday

Thank you
I love your videos so much! ❤ thank you for all the great input 🎉
Thank you for breaking this down it makes reaching our goals so much more attainable.
I appreciate this so so much, especially the reminder to temporarily hold on other obligations 💞
So timely! Thanks.
This is so incredibly helpful! Thank you! 😊
Know this but exactly what I needed to hear today. Will sit down with my planner yet today
This sounds good…in theory! Quite literally! 😄😄

Love a good SRAMT goal 😂

Then do SAR goals! There are no rules here, only experiments :)
you look so pretty

Great video.
But try to make it short , just a suggestion :)
I don't agree. Longer videos are more value-packed, and personally I find her videos short enough to watch in one sitting but long enough to go in-depth into each topic.
This video is short in my book. Im usually watching stuff that's 25-40 minutes
Very much agree here, I love me a good in-depth video with concepts I haven't really considered before!
