On-campus seminar
This training helps you understand what truly drives sustainable change. In Make It Stick: Learn the Mindset & Behavior to Realize Your Dreams, you’ll explore your mindset, learn how to overcome internal and external obstacles, and learn how you can change your thoughts and behaviour to really stay on track.
Through practical tools like habit stacking, action planning, and reflective exercises, you’ll learn how you can build the behavior, resilience and mindset to actually reach your goals.
What you’ll learn:
- How to set a small, concrete first step toward a personal or academic goal;
- How to reflect on previous goals or attempts to understand what held you back and what you can learn from it;
- How to recognize internal and external obstacles that block your progress;
- How motivation and resilience really work — and how to build them;
- How your mindset shapes perception, motivation and your ability to persist;
- Which practical tools help you change your behavior and stay on track to reach your dreams.
What you’ll take away:
- A deep understanding of how your mindset shapes your ability to act, adapt and persist
- Insight into the internal and external patterns that hold you back — and how to break through them;
- Practical tools (like habit strategies, accountability, and thought reframing) to turn intention into consistent behavior.
For whom:
This training is made for those who want to develop themselves, build mental resilience, and take action toward their personal or academic goals.
