What's the best way to set realistic goals?

Asked by Raj K.

OptiModel's answer

Use the SMART framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound. For example, instead of "I want to get healthier," reframe it as: "I will exercise three times a week for 30 minutes, aiming to lower my resting heart rate by 5 bpm in 90 days." That's specific (exercise), measurable (three times a week), achievable (30 minutes), relevant (health), and time-bound (90 days). SMART goals prevent overwhelm and give you a clear path to track progress.
