I’ve always approached resolutions by setting short and long-term goals spanning the entirety of the year — after all, we have 12 months to accomplish our goals, and there’s a reason they’re not called January Resolutions.

Now is an important time for business owners to reflect and set a course for the year ahead, but it’s easier than ever to get bogged
