Opening Activity:

Trainer can talk about their career journey, achievement & failures too. Share how you set your goals and action plans. Let them ask questions. Ask students to share any example from their life or from their families where people set goals and achieve them with persistent action. Tell them that using self-awareness and self-evaluation, we will learn about goal setting today.
