What are SWOT analysis’?
SWOT analysis is a structured planning method used to
evaluate the Strengths (characteristics that give an advantage over others),
Weaknesses (characteristics that are a disadvantage), Opportunities (elements
that can be used to an advantage) and Threats (things that could cause
problems) involved in a project or business venture.
You should consider whether the objectives are attainable
using the SWOT, and if they are not a different objective must be selected and
the process repeated.
You must ask and answer questions that generate meaningful information for each categories to make the analysis useful.

The best way for you to conduct this is to bulletpoint ideas
to capture factors that you believe are relevant in each of the four areas. Once
you have finished this brainstorming, create a final, prioritized version of
the SWOT analysis listing the factors in each category in order from the
highest priority at the top, to the lowest at the bottom.
What are SMART goals?
SMART goals are things that fit the criteria of being
Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time Based.
The best way to follow and reach these goals are to be honest in what you want to get out of this process, with a certain goal in mind. These must be measurable, with a definite improvement being reached as you progress, and achievable, as if you are working towards something you cannot complete you must repeat the process with more realistic goals. They must also be time based, in which you give yourself a specific time that you accomplish these goals by.
