expectations.

8. Awareness
Growth starts with self-awareness. Being aware of your strengths, weaknesses,
values, beliefs and aspirations provides a foundation for growth. Self-reflection,
seeking feedback and engaging in introspective practices can help you gain a
deeper understanding of yourself and your potential.

• Values
• Perspectives

however, they may not be true or helpful.

belief?

25. Reflect – 5 mins
• What new connections have you made in relation to Perspective?
• If our brains truly do sort through the lenses that we develop, what
possibilities might you be missing?
• Have you started to uncover potential blind spots? What are they?
• What is your way forward now that you know your blind spots?
29. Be Do Have
Do Have Be
If I do the right things, I’ll have what I need to become the person I’m supposed to be.
If I focus on who I want to become today, it’ll become clear
what I need to do, so that I can have all things that I desire.
Reversing your mindset
30. Reflect – 5 mins
• Do you tend to be more above or below
the line in your day to day? How could
you change this?
• How can embracing more of a growth
mindset start to change things in your
life?
32. From ‘Vision’ to Goals
Why is building your Vision so important?: Map –
journey becomes clear ‘You can’t begin your journey if
you don’t know where you want to end up’
Moving from Vision to Goals
• Start big, refine
• SMART (Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant
and time bound)
• Break down into smaller chunks (milestones) –
which makes action possible
33. Vision exercise – 5 years from now
Your work - ____________________________________________________________________________________
Your home - ___________________________________________________________________________________
Your relationships - _____________________________________________________________________________
Your finances - _________________________________________________________________________________
Yourself - _____________________________________________________________________________________
Your impact - __________________________________________________________________________________
34. Vision exercise questions – 5 years from now
•Your Work – What job will you be doing? Where will you be working? How will you be working towards what you
want this to look like?
•Your Home – Are you hoping to save up to buy a place? Are there some home improvements in your current
place you’ve been putting off? Does the garden need some TLC?
•Your Finances – Do you have some debts you want to pay off, once and for all? Are you saving for something in
particular? Do you want to get on top of your retirement plans?
•Your Relationships – Are you happy in love? Wanting to get married? How much value do your close friendships
bring? Do you need to work more on connecting with people?
•Yourself – How do you want to feel about yourself one year from now? Mentally, physically, socially, personally?
What does that look and feel like?
•Your Impact - What do you want to have accomplished? What difference do you want to have made to yourself,
your family, others, your community? What will you be most proud of?
35. My first step is….

workshop?

36. Creating your SMART goals
Now, take all the outcomes you desire and break them down into SMART goals (Specific,
measurable, achievable, relevant and time bound). For example:
By Dec, 2025, I want to have finished my medical studies online and received my certification,
have a job in my field of expertise, have a family and home of my own, and mentor 5 other women
in setting and achieving their own goals.
Your SMART goal draft:
