Upcoming Exclusive Columbia University Webinar

Setting and Achieving Your Goals
Wednesday, August 21: 1 p.m. - 2 p.m.
Register Here

Setting goals can help you achieve your desires in life. However, relatively few people actually prepare their objectives, perhaps because they feel that they do not have the time, the skills, or the resources to do so, or are hesitant to commit to their goal. This seminar will address the common challenges that participants may face as they begin to focus on their positive future. It will also discuss proven strategies to design goals, evaluate their completeness, and implement a plan to achieve them.
