2025 Goal-Setting Attempt

James and Pat discuss how to set achievable goals for 2025 and share one weird tip for getting shit done.

Who do you have to be to reach your goals in 2025? In this first taping session of the year, your Gifted Underachievers are feeling giddy about their ambitious goals, both personally and professionally. Giddy, that is, until we run into the brick walls of overwhelm and avoidance relating to the complex, unfamiliar tasks that are required to reach those goals. Midlevel creatives can’t always afford professionals to do the stuff we don’t know how to do. The silver lining is that learning these skills can make us more valuable on every front. Join us as we discuss this and other aspects of goal-setting for the year ahead.

Thanks for reading Gifted Underachievers! This post is public so feel free to share it.
