Trust : trust is vital because it creates an environment where individuals and organizations can thrive also broken trust can be like pandemic or fast evolving disease as one member broken trust towards someone it will become 2 members then members ...... And it goes on. 

Expect failure: as it turns obstacles to learning opportunity and help who ever failed not to fall in the darkness of their fears and high expectations .

Take Care of Yourself: even though i don't fully believe in you can't pour from an empty cup cuz most humans do try to give what they never had , i still believe that taking care of yourself is gonna make it easier to help others.

The 3 most important takeaways for me from this discussion I regards o the 7 Cups culture  are the following:- 

1. High expectations and High Warmth - One of the things I noticed from the beginning when I started out as a Listener here at 7 cups exactly a year and a week before, is the equal level of expectations and warmth that was asked and given to me. I was often reminded of my roles and responsibilities while simultaneously felt the sense of belongingness in the community from the mentors and fellow listeners alike. Even while pointing any error in my side, if was dome in a constructive manner just as the way I was praised for my work. This aspect of the of the 7Cps culture is what motivated me to pursue further and not lose touch even if the break was long.

2. Accountability - Though having interests and possessing the skills to contribute is required to get the work done, being accountable ensures there's consistency and orderliness for efficiency in the final product.

3. Skin in the game - True achievement can't be reached or felt if whatever work done is on a surface level. Only when we try immerse ourselves in the tasks at hand can we really give it our all leading the best outcome possible.

1. Strength based approach- rather than dwelling that I won't be a good leader because of my shy personality. To change that mindset to what are my strengths that I can utilise 

2. Don't stress too much over failure-sometimes I feel like everything have to go right but just got to remind myself it's ok for things to go wrong somtimes but what is best is to see what you learn from it. Reflect and see what can be done so that that incident won't happen again. 

3. Self care- despite how much I love supporting others, I need to make sure I'm taken care of- practicing self care, so that I have a greater capacity to support others!

1. Caring for people with fewer financial resources: 7 Cups supports people who do not have alot of money. I think it is important since in most of countries people are not even aware by therapies or therapists or even psychologists and if by any chance a person knows it and wants support. It costs them so much.

2. Skin in the game: 7 Cups is all about making the world a better place to live. In my opinion, it's a great work. As there are not so many people who think like that but look at here we have  a vast community here helping people out. Just working for good cause helps to build trust, collaboration, equality, friendliness, efficiency, accountability, fun and many more. I am so happy to be a part of this wonderful team.

3. Take care of yourself: 7 Cups ensures each of it's clients health and I agree with it that we can't save someone else if we by ourselves are drowning in the troubles end.

<3- "We are using our brains in a focused and deliberate manner to problem solve."

<3- "Failure is nothing to be scared of and it is nothing to worry about as long as you are focused and trying."

These are three different quotes form the culture guide that really hit home (theres so many more lol!) but these are the ones I can relate to the most.

I'm happy to complete course 1!!! Yay

The three most important things which I leaned from this guide are

Building trust,Trying hard and knowing my strength(Strength based)

Building trust is fundamental to any relationship because it forms the foundation for genuine connection and effective communication. I’ve learned that trust is cultivated through consistency, transparency, and reliability. When you consistently act with integrity and keep your promises, you create a safe space where others feel valued and understood. 

Trying hard is often a positive approach because it reflects commitment, effort, and perseverance. 

Knowing your strengths is crucial because it allows you to leverage your skills and talents effectively in various situations. By understanding what you're good at, you can focus on areas where you can excel and make a meaningful impact.

1. I've learned that alignment is very important to achieve meaningful and significant activity and effective leadership requires aligning your interests, strengths, and the needs of the community.

2. I learned that I'd be more productive, effective, and fulfilled when I utilize my innate abilities.

3. It's very important to take breaks in order not to feel burnout. Focus on my own mental health in order to be more helpful to others.

All of this is very important to me because it offers me opportunities for personal growth, self-awareness, and skill development which would help me ✨glow ✨ Through this program I will be able to contribute to a supportive environment while also grow both personally and professionally!
