After the last couple of years, no one could blame us if we gave up on the idea of setting goals. This is particularly so with uncertainty still in the air and plans constantly shifting as people have to isolate. But despite this, we cannot ignore the benefits that goal setting can bring us. Goals give us focus, making it easier for us to see where to place our attention and what we need to do going forward.

We're willing to bet that you've experienced more moments of joy throughout 2021 than you initially thought.
