Goal Setting Power Hour

Are you making the progress you would like to make and are capable of making? Do you have clearly defined goals? Are they written down? Do you have a plan to achieve that goals that matter most in your life? If the answer to most of these questions is no, you're not alone. Studies show that less than 3% of Americans have written goals, which is mind boggling in a country that focuses so much on success!

Join us for Goal Setting Power Hour where you will be challenged to think about your goals and get started with developing a plan to achieve them! In this fast-paced workshop, you'll get motivated while learning about the goal setting process and the top 3 obstacles to every goal you set. You'll also learn about the role of time management in the goal setting process. So bring your lunch and your ideas about what you hope to accomplish during the 2nd half of 2012!
