English term or phrase: SMARTER

I have to use the word "SMARTER" for several things that are necessary for a goal to work.

S = Specific
M = Measurable = Medible
A = Attainable = Alcanzable
R = Realist = Realista
T = Time Bound = Tiempo límite
E = Ethical = Ética
R = Registered = Registrarla

Anyone out there that can help with something for Specific, other than "Siempre específica". Thank you!

eSpecífico

Explanation:
No es la manera más ortodoxa pero podría funcionar... A veces, cuando falla una letra para formar un acrónimo, se utiliza la segunda letra de una palabra para que todo encaje. En inglés se suele hacer especialmente con la letra "X", ya que hay muy pocas palabras que empiecen por X. Creo que podemos hacerlo aquí con la S.

smarter singular

Explanation:
Lo ideal sería un adjetivo que empiece por S. Este es el mejor que se me ocurre. Ya sé que no es un sinónimo exacto de "específico", pero no está muy lejos. Tal vez sirva.
