I found it difficult to answer the question around my career goals with a straight face ever since I made a conscious decision on living a life without objectives. Back in December, snowstorms, unexpected travel interruptions, and long hours of driving put me hard in the present moment. When I was present it was hard to think about the future.
I suddenly lost all interests in setting SMART or SMARRT goals for 2023. Instead of goals, I will look out for my lighthouses, the virtues, in order to stay on my path. There I was, on the slope, and that was all I wanted.
