Practical Advice and Insights
The process of change is a creative process and this is what’s good to know about it!
One. The creative process is circular and not linear.
Two. There is no rush.
Three. It’s about progress, not perfection.
Sometimes an exercise will take you 15 minutes and another day it might take you 2 hours or more. It’s simply what it is.
Your Subconscious Mind
It's important to give yourself enough time for the entire process, and here's another great reason why. As you embark on this journey, your subconscious mind will provide you with answers even when you're not actively working on a specific exercise or question. Your mind, heart, and soul will surprise you with insights when you least expect it, whether you're taking a shower, doing chores, chatting with a friend, or commuting to work. Remember to pay attention to the signals your subconscious mind sends you. Take mental notes or, even better, jot them down in a notebook!
Meaning of Change
Perhaps take some time to answer the following questions, sit with them, listen to the answers. Let them flow out of you. There is no right or wrong.
What does change mean to you? Feel free to look up the definition or define it yourself.

What do you struggle with when it comes to the topic of change? Is it about changing a situation, a feeling, a thought or maybe a habit or behaviour?

Can you dedicate time in your agenda for this course? Perhaps plan it, so you keep staying on track. It is also advisable to do at least one blog (exercise) per week.

Remember too, it’s a process and it is never completely finished. It’s therefore essential to keep on revisiting your goals and also the role you wish to play in reaching them during this process of change. Here are a few more questions to ask yourself:
What can I do to keep myself motivated during the process?
How can others also benefit from this in the future?
To what extend am I dedicated to reach my goals?
