This Individual Goal Setting online training course will teach you how to properly understand, effectively set, and achieve your goals. You will learn to avoid setting goals that are either unrealistically high or too easily reached. The course also teaches you to understand the difference between goals and dreams.

Goal setting can be tricky. Aim too high, and you might get frustrated by a lack of achievement and give up altogether. Aim too low, and you could get a false sense of accomplishment from attaining goals that were too easy to reach. And if you confuse a goal with something else—a wish or a New Year's resolution—you could end up going nowhere at all.  

This course defines goals, outlines the fundamentals of goal setting, highlights the differences between wishes, resolutions, and goals, and sets out guidelines to help you achieve your goals.
