Quitting is okay?
At the beginning of the year, I set goals for my business and my creativity. I usually do this. I was especially focused on the right inputs. I wanted to make sure my goals didn’t have me focused on results, but focused on completing inputs that I knew would drive those results.
This was before a lot of change happened for me. I decided to sell my stake in my business. I decided to angle my career towards writing, speaking, and running workshops. Now, I’m realizing that the goals I set at the beginning of the year might not be totally relevant now.
I’ve been wrestling with myself—should I continue with my goals for the last two months of the year? Or should I quit them, and set new goals that are more relevant for my life now?
Specifically, my content goals have been quantity-based, focused on creative exploration and growth. But now, they need to drive traffic and measurable revenue. So should I wait for the end of the year, in order to prove to myself that I’m not a quitter? Or should I quit them now, in service of more relevant goals?
