Inner Development Goals Course

@Hope @Soulfullyabutterfly @GlenM

This sounds really interesting. Checking out now yay! Thank y'all for continuously bringing such awesome things to the table!💗

This is such a valuable course for everyone at any step in their lives. I'm excited to see our community utilize it and the collective expansion of skillset we'll see from it! If you're reading this, I highly recommend giving it some of your time!

I had a great insightful time learning about the IDGs and reflecting on how many mental health outcomes were also directly impacted by practicing them. I look forward to everyone's feedback and journey in exploring and practically putting these goals into action ✨

@SoulfullyAButterfly

Congratulations, Soul on this great achievement! This is so comprehensive, covering all aspects of improving our lives! It must have taken a huge lot of work! 

It also shows your commitment to understanding and putting into practice the elements of "a good life" as taught by many spiritual traditions, philosophis, and most recently CBT and Positive Psychology, among others.

I like the approach of "expanding the good" as complementary to our typical work here of dealing with what's challenging in our lives. Sometimes a great way to deal with what is problematic is to expand what is well in ourselves, so as to strengthen our capabilities to deal with what's challenging, and also signal that we are not just our problems, that we can grow and improve, and our issues become a smaller part of ourselves.

It is a very generous gift from 7 Cups that this Course is open to all Members as well as Listeners in a self-paced, easy-to-do manner. We all can take advantage of improving our skills, capabilities and abilities in all areas of our lives.

I have started this course. I want to improve in all the topics and areas shown in the infographic. 

And I hope that many Members and Listeners benefit from this course.

Thank you very much for this opportunity!

@HealingTalk thank you for your reflections - you share our goals for this course very well. I look forward to your feedback.

@SoulfullyAButterfly 

Thank you so much, Soul!

I will do the course and share my thoughts along the way.

You are amazing dear 7 Cups team and community! 😍As head of research co-creation at the Inner Development Goals -  this course and 7 cups ability to bring it around the globe is just so valuable! At present we are also engaged in a global listeing excercise - as listening to the voices, ideas and opinions of others may be among the core set of skills for sustainable transformation in your daily life and across your neighbourhood, city, region, country and across the whole of the world. Please join the 4000 people across 100 countries who have already shared their wisdom about the IDGs through our 1 question survey and please make sure you send this widely into your network as widely as you can! You find the survey, media kit and more info @innerdevelopmentgoals.org

@ambitiousSugar7989 great to have you on 7 Cups! We are very happy to support the IDG efforts. 7 Cups is made up of amazing people that are all working on personal growth and service in one way or another. Working alongside you and your team will help us collectively lift up inner growth and transformation. 

Also, for the community, this is Fredrik Lindencrona. A very smart, innovative, and interesting researcher and psychologist that deeply understands systems thinking. He helped me better understand how 7 Cups can be seen as a commons property resource (like a national park or community garden). Welcome to 7 Cups Fredrik!

@Hope 

Yayyyy! 🎊🎊

Congratulations, Hope!

This is a great addition to the Academy's portfolio of Programs and Courses, very much in line with the self-improvement and growth mindset that 7 Cups promotes.

I hope that many members of this Community benefit from such a generous gift, that might be life-changing for many.

May this course improve many lives, and help many people flourish in all dimensions of their lives!

@Hope @SoulfullyAButterfly

I can't see the quiz, it says that it is only available to users of the organization. I think the settings should be modified so that they are visible to all users.

@Reggaetonn I think this is fixed now. Can you take a quick look and let us know? Thank you!

@GlenM 

Yes, It is fixed :)

Thanks no needed 😎

@Hope

i love it and very interested in it ….🙌🙌🙌💕💕

This seems interesting 🤗

@InsightfulPhoenix It really is

@Hope

I've been wanting to take this course but not replace the growth path I'm on. Is that at all possible?

You can take it or some steps and then switch back if that is helpful.

@hope

thank you for telling me about this course!  I think it’s fantastic!

@Hope

Unfortunately writing is one of my worse skills. I simply have trouble translating ideas to words. Otherwise this looks good to me. 

@Gettingbettertoday

I have seen your contributions in our forum spaces and I believe you are not giving yourself enough credit! The course is not very focused on writing, it is mostly learning the knowledge presented and when writing is required, as the course is not testing your writing skills, your best will suffice. Even so, we are here to help! 

@Hope

I am doing it but i am already stuck on the 4th or 5th step.

In the box below, share your reflections regarding what Ikigai means to you and what your purpose is.

I only know one of the four inputs for sure. My Strengths. The other 3 are just guesses. And yes I know one of them is "What do you love?".

@Gettingbettertoday

Guesses are fine! You just need to write down what you understood. You are welcome to message me for further questions

@Gettingbettertoday

This course was very challenging for me!  Don’t give up on yourself!  Reach out to Hope for help!  She was incredibly supportive and I would have given up and quit had I not reached out to her!  You can do this!

@Hope

It is really interesting Thank you

I don't like to be that guy but...

"Visioning" is not a word.

@slowdecline48 Well let us be pioneers

@Maslow 🤷🏼‍♂️ People will make up words regardless of my opinion about it. I'm one of those retro people who finds 20th-century English to be more clear, concise, slightly less deceptive (at times) & overall much better than the swiftly mutating Internet lingo so common today.

@Hope

Thank you for telling me more about what the IDG course is and how I can get there. I believe that this course is valuable for anyone that wants to further their journey.  I know for me it will help me on becoming a better listener to our members on 7 cups. 

@Hope

😍👌

@Hope

I just completed this path and the required steps to hopefully complete the whole course. I am glad I found this course and had the chance to go through it. I found the whole course thought provoking, insightful and eye opening. :)

@Hope I'm starting this course now. I'm looking forward to it. 

@TheGirlWhoFeltTooMuch

You will definitely like the course

@Hope

I'm excited to see our community utilize it and the collective expansion of skillset we'll see from it! If you're reading this, I highly recommend giving it some of your time!

Do you get a badge or certificate for completing it?

@Zeraphim

Yes both!

@Hope

This sounds like fun

Wow...this great. I feel this will help me with building myself for my personal growth and development.
