I just reviewed my goals from January last year and barely recognize the person who wrote them. My priorities changed more than my role did. How often do you reevaluate what you actually want.

Honestly, this is the approach that I take as well. I write down goals and re-evaluate them every couple of months. Sometimes priorities do change and that is totally okay.

As far as work goals I go through them each 1:1 so about monthly

I always copy and paste my goals over from last year, lol. It's a little bit lazy but nobody really takes the goals seriously and we never reviewed them throughout the year, so I don't want to waste a ton of time on them. I guess I should maybe reevaluate my goals a little bit more often but I don't really want to.

Oddly enough I rarely dwell on the goals set in the past. Either I meet them or not and realign based on that

This is my take too

Sometimes I just set goals I know I can hit without too much fuss… the task sometimes feels dumb
