PODCast E176: Setting Goals the Right Way in Print on Demand and Life!

1/3/2024
Welcome back to the show, POD Pals! In this episode of the Print on Demand Cast, Travis and Josiah share insights on goal setting. Considering it's a new year, many people will make New Year Resolutions only to abandon them in the upcoming weeks and months. Why is that?

To that end, the guys share the difference between "achievement based goals" and "habit based goals."
