Theme: Protect Your Peace So You Can Fulfill Your Purpose

Welcome to Module 7: Personal Preservation. At this point in your journey, you’ve begun to step into your vision. But now, we shift from movement to maintenance. Transformation is not only about what you build—it’s about how well you care for the one doing the building: you.

Personal preservation means prioritizing rest, reflection, and routines that restore you. It is the intentional act of protecting your time, energy, and well-being so you can sustain your progress without sacrificing your peace.

This module is vital because without preservation, progress will eventually lead to burnout. You’re not a machine. You’re a whole person—body, mind, and soul. And each part needs care to stay aligned and strong. Creating space for yourself is not weakness; it’s wisdom.

Why This Matters:

  • You can’t fulfill your purpose if you’re constantly running on empty.
  • Without personal preservation, you’re more likely to operate in survival instead of strategy.
  • It empowers you to say yes to what aligns and no to what distracts.
  • It teaches you how to stay whole, not just functional.

You deserve to be well, not just productive. This is where we protect the progress you’ve made.

In-Class Assignment: Build Your Refill Routine

  1. Create a Personal Preservation Plan by identifying one action you can take in each of these areas:
    • Mental well-being (example: journaling, breathing exercises, reading)
    • Physical health (example: stretching, walking, hydration, meal prep)
    • Emotional or spiritual balance (example: reflection, quiet time, affirmations)
  2. Write down your three practices as your “Refill Routine.”
  3. Choose one of the three that you will implement daily for the next week and share why you chose it.

Second Assignment: Self-Care Inventory and Commitment

  1. In your journal, reflect on these questions:
    • What currently drains me mentally, physically, or emotionally?
    • What habits or routines help me feel recharged?
    • What boundaries do I need to protect my energy?
  2. Choose one area of your life that needs preservation (ex: sleep, time, space, mental focus), and create a small shift this week to protect that area.
  3. Track how this shift affects your energy, mood, and focus.

This module reminds you that your wellness is not optional. You are the vessel for the vision—and preserving yourself is part of walking it out with grace, intention, and longevity.

Boundaries

Theme: Protect What You’re Building by Defining What You Allow

Welcome to Module 8: Boundaries. Boundaries are one of the most important tools in your transformation. If personal preservation is about self-care, then boundaries are about self-respect.

Boundaries are not walls to keep people out—they are fences with gates that allow you to decide what comes in and what must stay out. They help you protect your energy, time, priorities, and purpose. Without boundaries, even good intentions can lead to exhaustion, resentment, or delay.

Many people struggle with setting boundaries because they fear conflict, rejection, or guilt. But here’s the truth: boundaries don’t push people away—they teach people how to love and respect you well.

Why This Matters:

  • Boundaries prevent burnout and protect your peace.
  • They create clarity in your relationships, responsibilities, and time.
  • They help you stay aligned with your values and goals.
  • Boundaries strengthen your ability to say yes to what’s meant for you—and no to what isn’t.

Setting boundaries is an act of love—for yourself, your future, and your calling.

In-Class Assignment: Boundary Reflection Activity

  1. Reflect on the areas in your life that feel overwhelming or draining right now.
  2. Choose one area (example: time, relationships, work, commitments) where a boundary may be needed.
  3. Write a sample boundary statement for that area.
    • Example: “I will no longer accept last-minute requests that disrupt my priorities. I will communicate my limits with kindness and clarity.”

Second Assignment: Practice and Journal

  1. Implement your boundary in one real-life situation this week.
  2. Journal about your experience using these prompts:
    • What was difficult about setting this boundary?
    • How did the other person respond?
    • How did it make you feel afterward?
  3. Revisit your boundary statement and revise it if needed.

You deserve a life that honors your time, values, and energy. Boundaries are not a barrier to love—they are the framework that allows it to grow safely.

Forward Thinking

Welcome to Module 9: Forward Thinking. Transformation starts with clarity, but it’s sustained by mindset. Your thoughts shape your habits, your habits shape your actions, and your actions shape your future. In this module, we’ll focus on how to align your mindset with where you’re going—not where you’ve been.

Forward thinking is about developing mental patterns that support growth instead of fear, purpose instead of pressure, and vision instead of limitation. It means being intentional about what you allow yourself to dwell on, speak out, and believe.

This isn’t about positive thinking—it’s about purposeful thinking. It’s about renewing your mind to expect progress and possibilities, even when the process is uncomfortable.

Why This Matters:

  • Your mindset can either support or sabotage your goals.
  • Growth requires new thoughts, not just new actions.
  • You become what you repeatedly tell yourself.
  • Forward thinking builds resilience, clarity, and confidence for the journey ahead.

If you’re going to fly, your thoughts must lift you—not limit you.

In-Class Assignment: Limiting Belief Rewrite

  1. Write down one limiting belief you’ve been holding (example: “I’m not qualified to start a business”).
  2. Then, rewrite it as a forward-focused truth (example: “Every skill I need can be learned and developed.”)
  3. Say your new belief out loud and reflect on how it makes you feel.

Second Assignment: Create Your Mindset Declarations

  1. Write 3–5 forward-thinking declarations that reflect the person you are becoming.
    • Start each with “I am” or “I will.”
    • Example: “I am becoming more focused and disciplined each day.”
  2. Post them somewhere you’ll see them daily (mirror, phone, journal).
  3. Read them aloud every morning for the next 5 days.

You are not your past. You are not your failures. You are not your fear. You are who you’re becoming—and that starts with how you think today.
