I finally stopped trying to plan my whole year after a mentor in Boston said 'your five year plan is just a list of things that won't happen'.

Now I just set a single, clear goal for the next 90 days, like 'save $1000' or 'finish my online course', and it's way less stressful and I actually get stuff done, so what's a good short-term goal you've set recently?

Honestly my last 90-day goal was just to keep a plant alive. Spoiler, it didn't make it. So my new goal is to finally unpack the last three moving boxes from like six months ago. They're just sitting there, full of who knows what, judging me every time I walk past them. Figure if I can't commit to a fern, I can at least commit to finding my spare charger.

Full of who knows what" is the real adventure lol. I once found a box of just loose batteries and a single ski glove from two moves prior. Felt like a weird treasure hunt. Good luck with your charger quest.
