MASTERMIND – 15 INVALUABLE LAWS OF GROWTH
Hi everyone!
This is Sheryl Anand and i recently completed my A levels and currently a student studying Web Design and Development in Canada since last year.
I got an opportunity to be part of a mastermind group where we were studying about the 15 invaluable laws of growth by John Maxwell which was facilitated by Maxwell Leadership Certified Team member, Mr. Balan Swaminathan.
I enjoyed reading the 15 invaluable laws of growth and discussing it in our sessions. It helped me see situations in a different light and approach it differently. I started having the mindset of a learner rather than a victim and not to compare myself with others but also to pick up the good qualities which others possess.
I am generally a perfectionist. Anything i put my hand to, I want it perfect with no mistakes. It is also difficult for me to accept failure or mistakes and when something bad does happen i would think about it for a couple of days and be drowning in negativity, but Mastermind also helped me realize that, we cannot be perfect all the time and we do make mistakes, we should give that room for mistakes too, and instead of surrounding ourself with negative words, we should learn from it.
I lived in Botswana, a country near South Africa for about 19 years (almost since i was born) and my childhood and teenage was completely spent there and last year in August I moved to Canada for my further studies.
This was the first time i was away from home on my own and I am an only child so i faced a a lot of challenges moving to a new country, making new friends, finding a new church, new environment was that when I face challenges in life, each of it teaches a valuable lesson and although i will be thrown out of my comfort zone, it’s for the best to equip me better. This helped me stay positive minded.
In general, I really loved and enjoyed the sessions as i got to hear many different types of experiences other individuals had we were mostly relatable, and the interaction with a trusted group of people was what i enjoyed the most.
I highly recommend attending this course as it helped me grow as a person, it was useful to me in many ways and i could recognize certain areas I needed to rectify and moulded me.
I am definitely sure that this would benefit you too. Thank you
