There are two kinds of goal setting strategies. One is called SMART goals, the other is called DUMB goals. I would like to say DUMB goals are far more important than SMART goals.
Here is why. DUMB goals can give you the maximum growth opportunities while SMART goals can't. The true reward is not achieving the goal itself but the growth you get along the way.

DUMB goal strategy is mentioned by Brendon Burchard. You may want to check his video here. He explains it very well. We need something that fires us up to perform the best. Only then, we are able to summon real power we already have within us.
The problem with SMART goals is 'attainable'. Once you start thinking about something attainable, you actually kill your opportunities for growth. When you set higher goals, you will know that you can do much more than you used to think. That's growth and that's the real reward of setting goals, the purpose of goal setting.
