A third challenge of setting SMART goals for your passion project is ensuring that they are relevant and meaningful for you and your audience. Passion projects are often based on your personal passions, but they may not always match the needs, preferences, or expectations of your potential customers, clients, or followers. If you set goals that are irrelevant or disconnected from your market, you might end up wasting your time, energy, or money on activities that don't generate value or feedback. To overcome this challenge, you need to research and validate your passion project's market fit, demand, and competition. Use tools like surveys, interviews, or social media to find out: What are the pain points, desires, or goals of your audience? How can you solve them or help them? How do you compare to your competitors or alternatives?
