Teaching students to set goals for themselves is not a skill that is typically taught in most educational situations, yet it is a valuable life long discipline.
Most managers will agree that in order to be successful one must begin with the end in mind. Both students and employees can therefore benefit from learning how to set goals. The old adage of “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail!” Rings true, and we recommend making sure anyone taking a course have a goal or desired outcome that they can work towards accomplishing.

How stress affects your body - Sharon Horesh Bergquist. Let’s take a closer look at how the stress response works.
When your brain senses danger, your amygdala, the part of your brain that helps with emotional processing, sends an alarm signal to your hypothalamus. Acting as command central, your hypothalamus activates your sympathetic nervous system. This part of your autonomic nervous system leads to the release of adrenaline (also known as epinephrine) from your adrenal glands into your blood stream. All this happens in a split second. After adrenaline subsides, the second phase of your stress response kicks in. There are two parts to your stress response—turning it on and turning it off. How Chronic Stress Leads to Hormone Imbalance - The Paleo Mom. When we think about the effects of chronic stress, we think of cortisol.
