b'New year, new datebook\\u2014 and some very familiar goals. But this is the year we make things HAPPEN. We\\u2019re going to start by taking Jon Acuff\\u2019s advice to make our goals smaller- we mean absurdly achievable- and build from there. Acuff studied goal-setting and found that\\n\\nPeople with smaller goals are 63% more successful. Go big might be a good slogan for a gym wall, but if you really want to win, go small.\\n\\nIn this episode we discuss our goals for the coming year, including:\\n\\n* Margaret\\u2019s \\u201cmost massive purge\\u201d of her home\\n* Amy\\u2019s word for 2019: OPEN\\n* facing our fears\\n* engaging less with our kids when they\\u2019re being arbitrarily cranky and challenging\\n* becoming more curious about our spouses\\u2019 perspectives\\n* entertaining more\\n* reading more fiction\\n\\nWhat are your goals for the coming year?
