Question

Why is it important to have both short and long term goals?

Answer 1

Long term goals are something you work towards over time and short term goals just kinda keep you ground in a way, like for say getting a new job is a short term goal. That’s give you the feeling of accomplishment while waiting for that said long term goal. I hope that makes sense.

Answer 2

because short term goals help you stay in the present, they are usually small and achievable so you don’t easily give up on them. Having long term goals aswell is helpful as it gives you something to work towards every day or so. Having both helps you not give up or burn out but also plan ahead
