Why You Should Set Creative Goals



Helli is a sickly Victorian child this week and Charlotte has her life together with new nails. Prepare yourself for a very in depth chat about Charlotte’s stringent Goodreads rating process and Helli’s meta take on reviewing books throughout life.

It’s February, maybe you’re struggling with your New Year goals or maybe you never made any, either way we feel like setting some creative goals rather than metrics-based goals is a great way to find more joy and authenticity in your life and to redefine what an achievement is. Yes, hitting sales targets or income goals is great, but not every goal has to be so black or white or come with so much stress/pressure. Trying something new, getting outside your comfort zone, making something imperfectly, enjoying yourself even if you’re not perfect at something, doing something in your community, these are all achievements, maybe it’s time we re-defined what goals and achievements look like.
