    "Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible." - Tony Robbins Thank you to Prairie Food Link and FEAD Canada for having us back to continue the Link & Lunch Series! I had the pleasure of leading a session on Proper Goal-Setting for Professionals. Together, we set three major goals, then broke each down into quarterly milestones, monthly objectives, weekly tasks, and daily practices. Goal-setting not only keeps us focused but provides a clear roadmap, helps us prioritize activities, minimize distractions, and most importantly, builds confidence. Mark your calendars for the next session in the series on November 5th! Boost Strategic Coaching will presenting Time Management for Professionals, facilitated by the talented Shawna Nelson. (And while I forgot to snap a photo during the session, I did capture the beautiful surroundings at Boffins. I love any excuse to spend time at Innovation Place!) #Link&Lunch #ProfessionalDevelopment #BusinessCoaching #GoalSetting #TimeManagement #FoodProducers
