“A 21day Group-coaching Program aimed at getting you started
on rewiring your mind into thinking more positively”.
...........................
Psychologists have proved it. Some fight it. We
LIVE it….. I call it - the Happiness dilemma.
What is the happiness dilemma??
It has been proven that more than half of society
still believe that their happiness is determined by external factors; money,
relationships, success, when in fact internal factors play a far larger role in
sustaining happiness. Positive Psychologist & Harvard Professor, Shawn
Achor has done extensive research on this notion and it is around his research
that this course was created.
So, what comes first – happiness or success?
As Shaun points out “Most people follow this
formula: if you work harder, you will be more successful, and then you will be
happy. This formula is scientifically backward. A decade of research shows that
training your brain to be positive first actually fuels greater success
second.”
The thing with success is that we tend to move the
goalposts every time we achieve something, that way always making ‘happiness’
just out of our reach.
So how exactly do we reverse this formula?
Well, according to science and research, happiness
is a result of the way that your mind processes things! Put simply, when we
feed ourselves with average thoughts, we become ‘average people’.
Living with the notion that you were created with a
certain personality, characteristics and set of circumstances that may limit
your capacity for constant happiness, is what is referred to as “settling”;
settling for a life that is comfortable, expected of you and requires little
from you – a life that is actually way below your standards, your design, your
talents and your deeply rooted dreams. And it’s that notion that we will be
diving into in this course!!
What this course will propose is - ‘WHAT IF’?
- What if it were possible to rewire the way your mind
processes things?
- What if it were possible to break the habit of negative
thinking?
- What if you were willing to start investing more of your
time & energy on the internal you, and not so much on the external you?
Why 21 days??
Well, it is said to take 21 days to create or break
a habit, and according to positive psychology, it can take 21 days to start the
process of rewiring our brains to think more positively.So, 21 days it will be :)
How will it work?
It’s simple really. A habit is said to be made, or broken, in 21 days. We
will attempt to include some new habits in your day-to-day living, and in the
process of doing this, start rewiring the way your minds work.
We begin the course with a face-to-face session, where I explain how the
course will run, what inspired me to create it as well as presenting you with
your comprehensive workbook which you will work through on your own over the 21
days. As of that day, you begin implementing the 5 Happiness Habits into your
daily life and you journal all this in your workbook.
The course includes 4 face-to-face group sessions, including
the first intro session. Session usually take place at 7pm on a week day
evening; however this can be altered according to the groups schedule. The
face-to-face group sessions include accountability in terms of the workbook you
are filling in, as well as weekly coaching activities.
And finally, to keep you inspired, you will also receive a daily
email (from me), including little positivity-inspired challenges,
links to inspiring ted-talks and general accountability for the full 21 days.
Do I believe that a simple 21 day course will create lasting happiness?
NO, I’m not that unrealistic…but I do know, that there are most definitely
certain characteristics of the way positive people think, that do indeed make
their lives that much ‘happier’.
Who is
this course aimed at?
- All those who are needing a little nudge in
terms of their general positivity levels.
- Anyone who is up for a challenge, or 5, and is
determined to see change take place in their lives.
- Those who are determined to get ahead in life…to turn their backs
on average living and to rewire their minds to think like a ‘happy’ person :)
