goalnesia

/ˌɡəʊlˈniːʒə/nounVerified New

The collective forgetting of the objectives set in January by roughly March, without anyone declaring them abandoned.

The OKR wall still hangs; the quarter's energy has moved to whatever caught fire last week. Goalnesia is rarely a decision — the goals simply expire from attention, and next January's are written over them.

Etym. — goal + -nesia: strategic amnesia with an annual cycle.
