New psychology section

Hi Ilovesports108,

I'm not keen on the new psychology section. It doesn't really relate to smart criteria specifically. It is more about goal setting more generally. That article mentions psychology quite a lot already, but maybe something from the source could be added there. I was tempted to just delete the new words, but I thought it might be a good idea to discuss it first.

Yup, random fluff only peripherally relevant to the supposed topic of the article. Having just removed an entirely pointless and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility-violating image from this article, I decided to check back, as I had a vague recollection of nominating it for deletion. It turns out that I did so, 10 years ago to the day. [1] Given that nothing appears to have changed, and it is still the same ever-changing poorly-sourced twaddle about motivational management-speak, I may very well do the same again.
