These are good points but I still feel it's good for people to set goals. However with the understanding that things change over a year and you're going to need to adjust your plan. For instants I wanted to hit 100k hive and 75k leo by end of the year. However CUB launched and Hive prices mooned. NFTs exploded and play2ear exploded as well which greatly pivoted the goals by end of year. These are my main goals for 2022 now to reach but I'm not solely focused on that as I understand things will change again.
Some new goals for me are off of hive now and more about life but I also have bigger goals for Hive once I hit some milestones I set. Those goals are going to be to develop some type of game and launch it on hive no matter how little or small it might be. It's something I want to learn more about and mark it as an accomplishment and move from there based on what I learn from the small launch.
Goal are important it keeps people focused and moving in directions. Without them you end up being all over the place with no clear goal for what you want and that's a dangerous thing that can often get you hyped up into buying every random launch or token and getting scammed. I'm curious to see what others goals are but like you said I hope they are more than just token numbers and instead have larger goals, missions and things they want to achieve.
