The triangle of Measurable, Achievable, and Codified represents the three essential elements of effective goal setting. Together, they ensure clarity, focus, and accountability in pursuing success.

  1. Measurable: Goals must be quantifiable to track progress and determine success. Clear metrics, such as deadlines or numerical targets, provide focus and motivation while allowing for objective evaluation. Without measurable criteria, goals become vague and unmanageable.

  2. Achievable: Goals should be challenging yet realistic. Setting attainable objectives ensures that you stay motivated and avoid frustration. Unrealistic goals can lead to discouragement, while overly easy ones fail to inspire growth. Achievability creates the right balance of effort and reward.

  3. Codified: Codifying goals means writing them down and defining them clearly. A documented goal becomes tangible and actionable, making it easier to stay committed. Codification adds structure and helps prioritize your efforts.


Balancing measurable, achievable, and codified ensures that goals are clear, realistic, and actionable, leading to meaningful success.
