Goal Setting and Getting Things Done
Everyone has dreams and goals. Personal and professional goal setting, however, requires planning and action.

Following the advice in this course will help increase your productivity and help you achieve your dreams.
Overcoming Procrastination
We all procrastinate from time to time. Procrastination occurs when we avoid tasks that we find unpleasant. Even if we perform other work-related tasks instead of the ones we dislike, we are guilty of procrastination. Unfortunately, procrastination will hinder our long-term success. With the proper skills, you can overcome procrastination.
Mark Twain has a saying that applies to procrastination:
“If the first thing you do each morning is to eat a live frog, you can go through the day with the satisfaction of knowing that that is probably the worst thing that is going to happen to you all day long!”
Brian Tracy named his course on time management “Eat that Frog” because of this saying. The frog is anything that you do not want to do. You should complete your dreaded tasks first. Getting them out of the way will provide you with a sense of accomplishment and keep you from procrastinating. Always begin with the task that is the hardest and most significant, and you will be less tempted to procrastinate on other activities.
Our Goal Setting and Getting Things Done course will cover strategies to help you overcome procrastination. We touch on goal characteristics, time management, making a to-do list, and what to do when setbacks occur.
