About this episode
Do you set yourself monthly goals and if so, how many do you set? The Mere Mortals crew on the first Thursday of every month go over their progress from the previous month and where they are heading for the next. Emphasis as always is on the shortcomings, what they didn't achieve in the previous month's goals and how they will fix that for the month that comes. We hope you get some value from this series, showcasing our own methodology. What do you do differently and why? Let us know in the comments, Mere Mortals out!
