The FOUR Tools of the Self-Developer
Just a few steps to success and joy of life
Change begins when we stop complaining about life and others and take responsibility ourselves. Our attitude towards life, towards other people and towards ourselves is a superpower that ensures that we feel good and are successful both professionally and privately. We achieve on our own what we had previously tried to force ourselves to do.
With the four tools of the self-developer according to Jens Corssen – presented by his colleague and business partner Andrew Bannon – you will learn in this seminar how to change ingrained behaviour patterns and thus achieve a positive attitude. For more joie de vivre, success and serenity.
Self-Awareness
I am the witness and cost accountant of my thoughts and behaviour.
Becoming aware of your own thought patterns is the absolute prerequisite for personal growth and beneficial change. Once you learn how to coach yourself on the rollercoaster of life, you find significantly more satisfaction and success.
Self-Responsibility
I am 100% responsible for my experiences and actions.
When you take full responsibility for your experiences and actions, you increase your self-empowerment and therefore the chance to initiate the necessary changes. How you deal with the circumstances of life is your own free decision.
Self-Confidence
I stick to my goals and honour my commitments.
People who pursue their goal with passion and believe in themselves see obstacles or defeats as mere stopovers on the way to their goal. The required self-esteem for this is built up consistently by concentrating on the so-called “inner game” – and winning it.
Self-Conquest
I am willing to accept discomfort in order to achieve my goals.
The avoidance of discomfort and pain is a common cause of personal or professional issues. Therefore, if you want to get more out of life, you first have to give up certain habitual behaviours.
