Step 1 – Identify
- We help you prioritise the changes that will improve your life. Taking the time out to really think it through is a very valuable experience.
- We recommend completing a few priority areas and then moving on.
- You’re not being judged, so be honest and consistent with yourself. That way we can accurately prioritise your development.
- Once you’ve completed an assessment, set a goal to start your development journey.
- We recommend you spend 5 – 10 mins a day in the coach to make sure you optimise learning, and make changes habitual.
Step 2 – Set
- Focus on manageable changes – you can only focus on bite sized changes at a time. We will break down development requirements into manageable chunks.
- Tasks and Habits – setting yourself individual activities to repeat, creates discipline and accountability.
- Fit around you – we’ll match your needs with a range of development content that you can start immediately. You choose which ones work for you, how many and when to access them.
- A realistic timescale – give yourself time to practice & make your new behaviours habitual. As a guide, repeating things for 30 -60 days really helps to embed those behaviours!
Journaling
- Use the Journal to reflect on your progression and performance, to inform your next steps and future decisions.
- We recommend you spend at least 5 mins a day to write down your thoughts, feelings, learnings, and experiences. Some of these will relate to progress you have made against your objectives and/or goals (and you can link them), many won’t but are hugely valuable to you and your health.
