Given a word, we are told to write the first word, that comes to our mind on seeing the word, on writing the second word, we are told to write the third word. This exercise was done first with:

1) Me 

2) Women

After 5 thoughts, each came with different word. 

Discover your differentiator. Get an insight into your authentic self that sets your apart. Chang the way you connect with yourself and with people. 

We have folders/files in our mind and without realizing, we keep filling those folder. Connecting with yourself, is filling those folders. 

Example : Success might mean coming first to some. But after a point if the person stop coming first, might feel bad, so will have to change. Recognize if the folder is working.  Having an opinion that mattered and is sorted after. 

Are we celebrating who you are? 

Women for some mean being super women, doing everything. 

What's your authentic significance?

1) If time and money were not an issue, what would you love to do?

2) Why? It helps me feel/it improves my ability to.......

3) You may not be an expert in this, you love to have conversation about it, and people love to talk to you about this,?

4) How do people change or transform as a result? Start your answer with they feel.......

You will get answer to:

"I help people feel..........."

If you go through your life, and analyze how you make people feel, there is a part of you, operating on default. You use your talents by default. 

This exercise help the trainer to realize - that she help people express themselves better. 

How we go about it would be different with different groups. 

We have been doing it unmindfully; if we do it mindfully; it would really help.

Be authentic. You will be effective, in connecting with people. We talk at each other, and not with each other, if we talk with each other, you will understand their feelings.

Not all say, 'I love you', Mom might say, ' You please eat'; that's because she want's to make us feel that she love us.  Because that is in her folder. If we force her to change, she will get confused, she has to do it herself.

You will not be remembered for all the certifications and designations, but how you make people feel. 

Operate from that space mindfully. 

Don't change or try to change other - let it happen when you get married. If you feel you want to change others, and it is not happening, ask the question, and find what you want to receive. Understand your folder, and try to change that. It does not change, it evolves. It adds dimensions and depth.

Your authentic self don't stay in the same zone. Discover your hidden purpose, Fuel your hidden passion, Express yourself like never before.
