The classes, which began on Wednesday November 2, will be offered in the mornings at Chabad Savoy and evenings at Sandton Central Shul. There’s also the option to arrange the course or a condensed version of it in private settings such as offices, by request.
“The course is designed to help people get more of what they want in life, and less of what they don’t,” explained Rabbi Kievman. “Throughout the course we explore ways to cultivate people’s signature strengths, adopt a growth mind-set, access their inner creativity, deal with weaknesses, and overcome procrastination and other obstacles that get in the way of their success.”
At the core of “How Success Thinks” are six key productivity concepts, from motivation and goal setting to creativity and relationship building, which explain why some people get so much done. Drawing on 3 000 years of Jewish wisdom, as well as some of the latest findings and fascinating case studies from neuroscience, psychology, and behavioural economics, this course explains that the most productive people on earth don’t merely act differently; they view the world and their choices in profoundly different ways.
“Most people don’t have a clear picture of what they want to achieve in their lifetime,” said Rabbi Kievman. “In the course, participants will have a chance to explore their own definition of success, and then create a road map to equip themselves with the tools they’ll need to make that goal a reality.”
Like all JLI programmes, this course is designed to appeal to people at all levels of knowledge, including those without any background in Jewish learning. All JLI courses are open to the public, and attendees need not be affiliated with a particular community.
