Currently, dealing with solving situations that seem impossible to resolve. I have tried for a term and did not give in to the feelings that the would be no solution. In an effort to move things (mountains) forward I started to take personal development courses online and one option was Coursera
The Coursera Success Course offered by Richard Shell, University of Pennsylvania is a brief examination intended to cover the issues and beliefs I hold about my personal and professional success. The course provides a chance to think more about values, lifestyles, and achievements that form ideas and beliefs about what defines a successful life. The time spent on this exercise, and the effort seems like a luxury not a necessity. Do I really have to move a mountain to get things done?
Family upbringing definitely shape personal views on success. Many cases, families live in different locations, distances that are not easy to travel. Even years between visits and phone calls, have caused a separation. Values and life experiences have changed individual family members. Sometimes these changes are difficult to understand
What about decision making and future planning. Do cultural, and gender differences affect our productivity when working in pairs or teams? Is it possible that peer-support groups can help with finding solutions that help resolve these differences? Always the outcomes of these interactions can effect wellbeing, work environment or views on personal success.
Of course - most would think that success and wellbeing are correlated.
The reasons to study success are simply to create a more satisfying life, to figure what direction I will turn next, and develop a personal and professional plan for creating my overall successful life.
Is it all about happiness? some people think so. Shifting your focus on engineering your life, designing your future and examining your present situation. Starting with self-awareness , dissatisfaction, dealing with life's disappointments and preparing to make improvements when working with others.
