ABOUT THE COURSE

This 6 week course, the Psychology of Success, will be taught online through a combination of SDUIS instructors, weekly interaction with Deborah Waitley for informative Q and A sessions and special guest appearances, made by Denis Waitley himself, periodically throughout the class!

By measuring natural talents, comparative skills, and behavioral patterns, this course focuses on positive self-awareness and self-evaluation to enable you to understand self-imposed barriers and prejudices, thereby facilitating the realization of your full potential. Bench-marking also involves learning from the best practices of organizations and individuals with proven track records.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

By the end of this course, you will understand:

• How to view your mind as your internal “software” program—containing attitudes, beliefs, and habits that can be overwritten to produce desired results.
• How to treat your brain and central nervous system as your physiological “mission control center” consisting of pre-programmed genetic data, as well as data based on past and present life experiences that prevent you from or propel you toward completing your aspirations.
• Provide real-life useful daily examples and action steps on how to lead yourself and others to more effective interpersonal and intrapersonal communications, increased focus on primary priorities, a healthier, more optimistic view of the future, and how to handle setbacks, challenges, and difficult situations with resiliency and emotional intelligence.
