In this week’s three-minute podcast, I share a few thoughts in response to an article by Jeff Haden in Inc. about the difference between goals and systems. After you listen, I'd love to hear some of your own responses both to the podcast and to the questions below.

Do you tend to set goals and resolutions at the turn of the new year? How effective are they? 

Do you have goals for this year?

Would systems work better for you than goals alone?

What systems might you incorporate into your writing life this year to help you make steady progress toward your goal(s)?
