I recently regenerated a new direction and advised a well-articulated content strategy.
I have set up a roadmap and performance reviews bi-weekly.
In addition, I discuss daily with my mentor on any topic that piques my interest.

Thanks for sharing Andre, without goals and properly set-out goals, there is going to be nothing to achieve. :)
Thanks Kyle and most welcome.
This should be part and parcel of anyone wanting to build a business, be it online or offline.
That is why we need to ask ourselves questions about why, want, where, who, and so on at the start and even before we start to think of creating a business.
We need to set goals at the start otherwise we have nothing to aim for or one that will give us a direction where to go.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and week ahead.
