Class One: Time Management and Goal Setting was taught by Megan Potter. What is your vision for your life? Do you have a dream? Megan gave us steps to follow to achieve any goal we make. One bit of wisdom she shared with us is to make goals that are SMART-Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timed. Thanks Megan for all the inspiring information!
