Design your life: Academic Year
As the new academic year begins, we encourage you to adopt a design mindset in order to design your path for the year ahead. The purpose of this worksheet is to consciously note the actions you wish to take this year and consider the motivations and perhaps the restraints that might exist when carrying out these points of action.
Visualise your Why...
Our ‘why’ is our mission for purpose, a cause or belief that drives us towards action. Sketch or communicate your why in a few simple words as a reminder of why you want to succeed over the next academic year.
What ideas do you wish to pilot over the academic year?
Trying new things can often be difficult. We encourage you pilot five new ideas or opportunities in your own life over the next academic year.
