  • "Excellent instructor. Learning about how to triage a to do list was extremely helpful, but the most important message that the instructor conveyed to us was that with the proper tools, that he provided in this course, and with intention and motivation, we can change our lives and our relationships, and we can have a more meaningful and happier life. He delivered this most powerful message repeatedly and in different ways, in case one way didn't resonate with you the next way would. It was a great course." -- Alice F.
