Most people should take some time to reflect on how useful both positive and constructive feedback can be beneficial; too frequently, and especially with inexperienced team members, employees become defensive when you present feedback. I believe setting an expectation of peer-to-peer feedback in the workplace and an open environment which welcomes constructive criticism is a productive one. 

I liked the goal setting lessons for the most part, they reinforced my belief that my previous workplace did not truly set SMART goals despite their insistance on doing so. I do feel motivated to complete smaller goals to give myself additional motivation more regularly as well - while not sacrificing the long-term goals I have established for myself.
