Some common challenges in implementing SMART goals include setting unrealistic goals, lack of clarity in goals, lack of commitment, and lack of monitoring and evaluation.

What measures can be taken to advance in these areas? Then set your SMART goals. "Eliminate to-do items that you tested and proved to be unprofitable or useless.
