Mar 04-10: Self-awareness

Objective

The word for the week is obligation; 1 : an act of making oneself responsible for doing something. The goal of the Sixtyone is to build a sense of obligation, reliability and commitment, first, in ourselves and anyone who wants to work with us. Next, it is the focus of every Academy session. We want the students to learn that they have an obligation to be their best.

Former Duke basketball coach describes here the path to improvement requires change, overcoming failure and building a team. These are the same concepts we talk about in our weekly themes. Can you identify what they are?

Our focus during self-awareness week is on reflection. We pay attention to how what we say, think, feel and do affects ourselves and others. Our obligation is to do the work, and then show the students and everyone interested in Being Sixtyone how they can benefit from doing the work too.
