185 - Setting Goals and Not Achieving Them

"Having a goal and not reaching it is better than not having a goal at all." We all know the feeling of disappointment when we set a goal that we are unable to achieve. When this happened to me earlier this year, I reread Viktor Frankl's book, Man's Search for Meaning, and in today's episode, I share the invaluable lessons that it taught me about setting goals and not achieving them.  If you found value in this episode, I would really appreciate it if you could leave a review!
