The correct answer is D. Measurable goals give a better indication of progress than unmeasurable ones, which in turn positively influences motivation because people can see how close to completing the goal they are. Additionally, having measurable goals increases the likelihood that the goals will be attained.

The correct answer is D) all of the above. The purpose of making a goal measurable is to ensure that there is a way to determine whether the goal has been met or not.

(A) When a person can gauge whether (s)he are meeting their goals or not, it becomes easier to make adjustments or plans to help meet the goal. (B) Knowing and seeing the progress in achieving a goal becomes motivating and may give a person a boost as s(he) sees how far along s(he) has come to fulfilling the goal.(C) By writing goals in measurable terms, they become more attainable because a person has actual indicators and observable things that will help signal whether a goal has been reached. It helps keep goals realistic.

Further Explanation:

Ideal goals are said to be S.M.A.R.T:

SPECIFIC: Goals should be focused and directed. They must clearly state what a person wants to accomplish.

MEASURABLE: As mentioned, there must be tangible ways to measure progress and whether a goal has been met or not.

ATTAINABLE: Goals must be achievable. There must be a realistic way to achieve the goal to prevent disappointment or demotivation when a goal seems to impossible.

RELEVANT: The goal should be relevant to the person's or company's mission and vision. It must not be something that would end up as a waste of time.

TIME-BOUND: The goal must have a target date for deliverables. There must be a realistic time period allotted for achieving the goal, otherwise, the person might slack off in completing it. Having a target date gives the goal some sense of urgency.
