The first quarter of the year is done — how are you doing on your yearly goals? Are you on track? Are you behind? Have you dropped some goals and added any new ones? Have you even made any goals for the year?

In this episode, we will be reviewing the goals we made on the podcast at the beginning of the year, and most importantly — we will share some tips and things we've learned about keeping and working towards your goals.

We'll also share what to do when a goal doesn't make sense anymore. Sometimes things come up and you need to make a course correction.
