0:08.0	See these machines.
0:10.1	Hey guys. Welcome back to another episode of The Man Talks podcast. My name is Roger Nairn.
0:14.7	And I'm Connor Beaton.
0:15.6	And we thought we'd take an episode for ourselves.
0:19.5	We're getting close to the end of the year. As we speak, there's about a week left before the end of the year. And we thought now is a perfect time for reflection on what 2015 was all about. Not only for ourselves, but we wanted to share kind of our process for reflection and our process for goal setting so that you can yourself plan for
