Here's How:

步骤如下：

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。尽可能让你的目标具体化。用简单明了的句子说出你想要达到的确切目标。

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

M代表可测量性。为你的目标制定一套测量系统。客观而非主观的对待目标。

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代表现实性。人要现实一点。要确保你设立的目标在现有资源的情况下是可以实现的。你想自身有所发展，那么努力吧，但是要设立合情合理的目标，否则最后你只会让自己失望。

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个A是行动导向性。用积极的行动来实现你的目标，而不要只是被动地说说而已。在每个句子的开始都用动词。

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

R代表着结果导向。将重点放在你想要的最终结果上，而不是行动产生的必然结果上。

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

T代表着实践基础。在一年内给自己规定一个期限。精确到你想要完成的那一天。
