Lesson 01

We the Support Community

One of the exciting aspects of this program is that you are not alone! We are here to support you and so are hundreds of other Makers. We are your growth and support family. So now head to our We the Makers Slack community. 👀 Here, you can connect with fellow makers who are on the same journey. This will be your support system, your accountability partners, and your inspiration.

Start forming these active connections and interacte! 👉 First introduce yourself and be active daily: share your progress, ask for feedback, show that you can be valuable to others too! 🌟 Remember, together, we can achieve remarkable things.

Lesson 02

Manage your Time wisely

We get it! 💥 You have thousand other things to do, including your personal and professional responsibilities. Balancing this coursework alongside can be daunting. But again you can gain so much from it that it's worth to find that time! Think of it as your ROI – Return on Investment 💰 Here are some strategies to help you manage your time effectively:

❶ Set Specific Study Times: 💪 Block out specific times in your calendar dedicated to studying. Treat these blocks as non-negotiable appointments.

❷ Use Technology: 📆 Leverage technology like Trello or Google Calendar to keep track of assignments and deadlines.

❸ Break Tasks into Smaller Steps: 👉 Large projects can be overwhelming. Break them into smaller, manageable tasks to avoid procrastination and reduce stress. This also applies to Course homeworks!

❹ Always Prioritize Tasks: 🌟 Distinguish between tasks that are urgent and important. This will help you focus on what truly matters.

Lesson 03

Get out of your comfort Zone

Comfort zones are cozy and familiar, but they are also where stagnation occurs. 🧸 Growth happens when we venture into uncharted territory and challenge ourselves to do things we've never done before.

Let's start Identifying one specific action that takes you out of your comfort zone. ⚡️ Commit to taking that action this week and Share your experience and what you've learned in our Slack channel.

🚨You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new. It's okay to feel nervous or uncertain; it's a sign of growth. Embrace the discomfort, and let it be the fuel that propels you toward your career goals.

PS: You're not alone in this journey, and your story can inspire others to embrace discomfort as well.
