How To Choose A Goal You’re Excited About + Will Actually Stick With
Tiffany and I are halfway through our workshop about goal-setting, nattering along at full-speed, when I see the question pop up in the chat box.
“All of this is super helpful! But what if I don’t really know how to choose a goal? How do I even figure out where to start?”
That’s the rub, isn’t it? All the habit-making, goal-achieving advice in the world won’t help if you, uh, can’t figure out what goal to go after.
And it certainly won’t help if you choose a goal you’re bored with or ambivalent about. I don’t want that for you!
3 questions that will help you choose a goal you’re excited about + will actually stick with
Welcome to Yes & Yes!
Want to spend your time, money, and energy on purpose? I'll show you how.

As such, I've managed to reach adulthood without...
Why You Should Read + Watch + Listen Outside of Your Comfort Zone
With the piles of new things I'm always trying, it might surprise you know that I'm a creature of habit. Does this song have a poppy hook? I will download it immediately and listen to it 100 times. Oh, is this a funny, self-deprecating memoir? I'm on the library waitlist yesterday. Is this a documentary about some sort of subculture and/or an underdog? NETFLIX GET OUT OF MY BRAIN. I will...
