Getting More From 2024

Dr. Rick and I kick off 2024 by exploring how we can relate to the past, plan for the future, and get more from the year ahead. We talk about different approaches to New Years, the tactics that maximize your chances of achieving a goal, and a simple four question system for reflecting on and learning from the year that was.
