Hello Reader,
Every new year brings with it a sense of possibility, a feeling that anything is possible if we set our minds to it. And one of the most effective ways to take advantage of this sense of possibility is by setting goals for the year ahead.
Setting goals gives us something to work towards, a way to measure our progress, and a source of motivation and inspiration. Without goals, we are like a ship without a rudder, drifting aimlessly through life without any clear sense of direction.
But setting goals is not just about creating a list of things you want to achieve. It's about creating a plan, a roadmap for your life that will guide you towards your desired destination. And the key to creating a successful plan is to make sure your goals are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound. Goals that are SMART.
By setting goals that are SMART, you give yourself the best chance of achieving them. And as you work towards your goals, you'll find that you gain a sense of control and direction, a feeling that you are in the driver's seat of your own life.
So as you look ahead to the new year, take some time to think about what you want to achieve. Set some specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound goals, and then create a plan to make them happen. With clear goals and a solid plan in place, you'll be well on your way to creating the life you've always wanted.

Here are 100 things it can do.
I'm working on another piece of content to compare and contrast some of these use cases, and showcase others, because I find this technology fascinating, and I'm sure you will, too.
But I want to end this digression to get back to the topic at hand:
