As plausible as your reasons; nevertheless, set your independent goals for yourself , not for others!!
You are however expected to leverage others personal expectations to achieve yours. It is christened 'win - win ' for all!!
Without a periodic goal, underperformance is bound to result.
I am blessed reading YOU!!
Thank you for your comment. I agree that working with others to see how we can attain our own goals while leveraging the power of our joint efforts into a win win is the best path.
