We all lead busy lives, and taking the time to set goals with intention often seems like just another thing to add to an endless to-do list. But setting goals carefully and effectively is actually one of the best investments you can make with your time.

In Dreams in Action, an audio course from Scribd Coach, life and leadership coach Jen Welsh shares her perspective on goal-setting planning to rejuvenate the way you think about goals. According to Welsh, goals aren’t just tasks that pile up — rather, they’re dreams in action, a way to manifest what you aspire to be. In the course, Welsh explains how you can find clarity about your personal mission by exploring your values, how to discover the conviction that you’re headed in the right direction, how to approach your next goal, and how to build up the courage it takes to realize your dream. She also shares exercises along the way to help you put what you’ve learned into practice.

Whatever your experiences with goal-setting, you’ll come away from Dreams in Action with new insights, ready to take on your next goal.
