Course 1, Discussion 5: 7 Cups Culture

The 3 most important things to me: Trust because without trust you can't move forward. Expecting failure - I think failure is a natural thing that happens to everyone and it is one of the things that most helps a person to move forward. And the third is to maintain a safe atmosphere and the fuel tank.

To help make it more real, in this post, please highlight the three most important things you learned from our guide and why they are important to you

1) We expect a lot from you. You might feel like we think you are more capable than other people have suggested or maybe even more capable than how you see yourself. That is okay. Every person on the team has outperformed and done better than they expected. This is largely because warmth, patience, and trust help people make much more progress than they have in other environments. This paragraph stood out to me especially because warmth, patience and trust are three things I truly sensed when I first joined 7cups :) I also hope to help others feel this warmth as well :3

2) ‘Take Care of Yourself’ - It’s beautiful how we here at 7cups truly care about everyone here <3 and everyone’s wellbeing. I think self-care is extremely important <3

3) ‘Have Fun and Be Fulfilled’ - I think it’s hard to truly succeed at something if you have no interest in it, or you’re not having any fun. You will also benefit from something more when you are having fun doing it and when you’re personally fulfilled :3

I really enjoyed reading the guide <3 thank you so much :)

3 things that I learnt were:

1. Failure : no one is perfect and it's okay to fail. We should work on that failure but never be ashamed of it.

2. Accountability: since 7 cups is a collaborative team work , we should be responsible and accountable for ourselves and not let others point out for our mistakes.

3. Trust: Everything here at 7 cups works on trust. We should be honest with whatever we do and not lie in any moment of our work at 7 cups. Honesty and integrity is important.

Collaborate; In it to win it; Both me and 7 Cups have a gas tank.

Prioritising myself and my mental health as a form of self-care, to ensure that I can do things at the best of my abilities.

Having enough accountability; to be a responsible person here. Managing my time, and completing these courses, is something that I will try to do my best on.

Appreciating my work that I put into being here, and sharing my wisdom with the rest of the world. As well as, appreciating others, listeners and members alike, as we all play a big role here.(:

1) Expect failure. As a perfectionist, this is something I really need to remember, and to remind myself that failure is okay and is how we continue to learn.

2) Take care of yourself. Often, I put everybody else first and forget that I need to look after myself too. I aim to practice a form of self-care every day. I can't pour from an empty cup.

3) Self-efficacy/mastery. This is important for me as I want to grow my practice and become more confident in my abilities.

The Importance of Trust: Building trust is crucial not only in professional settings but also in personal relationships. In my life, trust is vital as it fosters meaningful connections and enables me to work cohesively with others.

• Caring for people with fewer financial resources

Access to mental health resources as well as awareness is a major challenge around the world, and 7Cups listeners can serve as the perfect peer support to help bridge the gap, address the stigma around mental health issues, and encourage people to actively seek out the professional guidance they need.

• Expect Failure

The focus that our society as a whole places on success often takes the spotlight completely off failures. We tend to not talk about them or share them with people, and just, in general, be ashamed of them, instead of learning from all that they have to teach us and accepting the fact that anyone who's trying to do anything at all fails at least once in their life.

• Have fun and be fulfilled

Because what else is there to life, really?

*Caring for people with fewer financial resources, as someone who had little access to mental health services due my income I find it important to support and ensure that help is there for anyone who needs it .

*We invest in you, the emphasis on doing work that is fulfilling is one of my core values and it is important that anyone I work with / for also embodies this .

*Collaborate, I always take others views/ opinions into account because quite often i feel as though we can get stuck in an echo chamber of the same ideas and in order to progress we need to challenge ourselves on what we know
