The description of this achievement should be clear enough. The requirement for unlocking this achievement is scoring more points than your opponent(s) at the end of the game, while only have completed short destination tickets.
In my achievement-winning game I played against just one opponent being Marg Loughbot. At the beginning of the game when you get to pick your destination tickets to play the game with you can pick any ratio of long and short destination tickets. As this achievement requires you to only finish short ones it is pretty obvious you want to choose between 4 short destination tickets.
You can pick any route you like. I can advise to choose your destination tickets to have a route at least close to each other, preferably somewhere in the middle of the map, as this makes extending your railway in case you decide to draw more destination tickets a lot easier.
Take care that the definition of a short destination ticket is that the route will only give you 11 points or less. Take that into account when you see your opponent(s) draw new tickets. That means that they might have completed their routes already, and if those destination tickets were long ones they might be ahead some points!
As there are so many possibilities of destination tickets you can begin with, trying to write a step-by-step guide would be nonsense. I can however share the process I went through, even though this achievement should be easy enough for anybody to understand and unlock. I placed it in spoiler-tags, as it may not be that interesting for an easy achievement like this one! :)
