Change Podcast Linda Yoonjin

In this podcast, I talk about SETTING GOALS YOU CAN ACHIEVE with Erin Falconer, the editor-in-chief and co-owner of PickTheBrain. We may attempt to make many goals in our lives but may find ourselves often discouraged that we aren't able to (1) achieve them or (2) stick to them without giving up. From Erin's own success with creating PickTheBrain, which Forbes has named one of the "Top 100 Most Influential Sites for Women," she gives her insights into how she achieved her goals and what factors to keep in mind for achieving yours too.

6. What is the most important thing to do in goal setting? What are the important markers I should hit when setting goals to guarantee success?
