I’ve read that writing down goals leads to a higher success rate of meeting them, but every time I write them down, I never meet them. I always have a better outcome if if I don’t put too much focus/pressure on what it is I want. Anyone else experience this?

Any advice on how to give constructive criticism on a newbie copywriter's writing. I feel like I spent a lot of time in the past two weeks uttering the phrase "I can see what you're trying to do, but that doesn't really work" and then trying to explain why it doesn't work without saying 'this is bad, try again'. How do you articulate why certain parts of writing are good and others are not?

I really want to help the guy and boost his confidence, but it's starting to take its toll.

I presented multiple ideas that I thought was a game changer and it keeps getting rejected. All these generic traditional ideas are being chosen and it sucks..

Need some advice/perspective. I’m about a year in at a top agency. Without turning this into a novella…details: hard working, strong teamwork, open to feedback, quick, responsive, talented. These are words I’ve heard from ECD’s/CD’s whom I’ve worked with. My problem: I feel like I have no produced work that’s book worthy. Besides some social posts and one larger campaign that I’m hoping will get produced next year… nada. Is this normal? Bc I see other jr/mid teams who have plenty. Just worried.
