		<description>Navtej,

I&#039;m not quite certain what you mean.  Our financial life and professional life are intertwined.  The SMART goals that we set should address both categories (how we will earn our income - aka Professional Life - and how we will spend it - aka Financial Life).

Now, if you mean work/life balance, I agree completely.  We should not live to work, nor should we purely work to live.  We should enjoy both parts of, or at least find something we are satisfied with for both.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s unfortunate.  SMART goals are the most effective way of setting goals because (1) it is easy to see what you are striving for and (2) you definitely know if you have made the goal or not.

Would you guess that people don&#039;t read it because it is something imposed on them for the goal program?  Or is it for some other reason?</description>
