measurable goals
Targets with metrics
Measurable goals are objectives defined in terms that allow progress to be tracked and success to be verified.
The emphasis on measurability distinguishes them from vague aspirations: not get healthier but lose ten pounds; not increase sales but grow revenue by fifteen percent.
The term belongs to business and self-help contexts, where it appears alongside acronyms like SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound).
