Are you on track to accomplish your goals?

I debated posting this in "Success Stories" as I am only 20% of the way to my goal of $5,000 a month in cash flow by March 2021 (My 5-year goal that I established last March).  I decided to post here anyway since I typically come to this forum looking for motivation, aspiration, and to feed off of the success of others.  A lot of people I talk to have goals of having "a lot" of money, "decent" cash flow, retiring "early".  The common theme here is that they're not SMART! (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Time-bound)

Having SMART goals will give you a roadmap to where you want to be, provide instant feedback on progress, and allow you to measure and project your future to design the lifestyle of your choice.  I'm a visual person, so I built a simple, but powerful chart that I look at every day that shows my progress towards my goal.  I attached a picture below and if anyone is interested I will share the excel document with you to tailor it to your needs.  I wish you all success! Let me know your thoughts on this tracking tool.

Congratulations @Tyler Wehrung, any step in the right directions deserves celebrating!  The road to success always has bumps, it's getting use to the bumps and keep pushing forward what's important!    This is a marathon, not a sprint, so keep up the good work and keep moving forward!
