SMART criteria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No.

It is NOT S=Specific
It is NOT M=Measurable
It is more often than not NOT A=Attainable (hence, your OP, right?)
Is it R=Relevant? I do not know; it is probably a matter of belief.
Is it T~time-specific? I do not think so, from observing how others struggle with it.

So... no point to keep trying and trying until it clearly and immediately benefits you.
Hamster, you are golden. Normally I hate animated gifs, but I can't resist this bowing one I saw recently. I really enjoy your posts and unique way of attacking problems!!!
Thanks for this!
