Or maybe not. The point is that I want to share it with you, in case it\u2019s useful. This blog is aimed at small and medium-sized business owners. But it\u2019s not just for them. <strong>I believe this post can be useful for almost anyone<\/strong>, for our personal life and also if you are an employee, to interact better with your colleagues, bosses, and subordinates within a company.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Those who know me know that I\u2019m passionate about productivity. I believe it\u2019s the only way to ensure our position doesn\u2019t disappear: making use of technology to become more productive and efficient. Just being busy won\u2019t be enough in the near future. <strong>One of the things that has helped me most in being productive was changing my mindset when it comes to setting goals in my life<\/strong>. In a productivity talk with <a href=\"http:\/\/aritz-urresti.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Aritz Urresti\u2019s Blog\"><strong>Aritz Urresti<\/strong><\/a>, I learned about the SMART method.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The <strong>concept of \u201cSMART goals\u201d<\/strong> refers to an acronym in English. The method states that the goals or objectives we set in life should be <strong>Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The main reason is that our brain does not understand or absorb general goals well. From my experience, it\u2019s not that we don\u2019t understand them; the point is that when we set specific goals, our brain almost unconsciously starts working at full capacity to achieve them. Because when a goal is specific, the question quickly arises\u2026 How am I going to achieve it?<\/p>\n<p> [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1523091771110{margin-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_separator css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1523091764831{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<p><strong>My reflection is that the same applies to communication. It must be specific.<\/strong> This is my experience as an entrepreneur. The more specific you are with your clients, your suppliers, or your coworkers when communicating, the better things will go.
