REACHING GOALS TOGETHER

It’s easy to declare a big goal for the future. It’s much harder to work backwards from said goal by establishing smaller goals to ensure progress or holding yourself accountable for doing all the work along the way. On this episode of The Harbor by Jostens, Mike talks with players and coaches from a high school football team on how they hold themselves and each other accountable when it comes to reaching their goals.
