Awesome article that talks about taking a different approach when it comes to improving ourselves.  The author suggests that instead of focusing so much on “sexy goals” as he called them, we should instead focus on systems.  He had a lot of reasons why this is a better way to go about doing things, and they made sense.  One of the biggest is that while goals offer motivation in the short term, for the long term they don’t work as well.  That’s why developing a system, a schedule, and a good set of habits is a better option for success in the long run.
