@nan00042 Hm.. well, in English we don't really say "set new heights" instead, we say "Set new goals"
For example:" I am trying to lose weight this year, I am proud that I am setting new goals for myself!"
When you say "heights" it means opportunities/future" Example: "He is trying to reach new heights with his business startup." I don't use "reach new heights" that often, it is used to add some drama to what you want to say, "Together, we can reach new heights." something like that, haha. If you are trying to be more serious with someone, you could say "Together, we will have a better future."
