Goal setting can be detrimental to your mental health. That’s right. You heard it here. I have research studies that back that up. But the same study suggests that there is another approach that can indeed change your life. We’re going to talk about that today on Flipping America.

I’ve conducted a small informal survey of people asking the question, “what do you look forward to least about the beginning of each year?” More than half the people I spoke with said, “resolutions.” Why? Because they don’t keep them. Today we’re going to talk about something else.
