1. Song I heard and really liked this week… I heard a song this week, called Running Out of Time, by Wyatt Flores (Thanks for sending it, Alie R.!). I love the lyrics! And yes… it is country, but even if you don’t like country music… hate country music… or cannot even bear to listen…

Every personal growth expert, self-help guru, or coach of any kind, will emphasize the importance of setting goals.
