Like I accomplished some cool things, but I'm using that

Obviously, I think it's impossible to not have goals. I think human beings, we can't not have a goal. That's part of being intentional. But the problem is the measurement. I mean, even if I had hit my goal, I would have gone into the gap.

Since it's tangible, ideals are not tangible. Like I have concrete evidence of what I did in 2022. And I can use that not only to propel me forward, but I can also use that to say, what do I want to do? That's even gonna be bigger and more exciting.
