Journey 1: Self
Pause for a moment to reflect on your origins, your connections with others, your passions, and the individuals who paved the way before you.
The questions provided within this exercise are designed to craft your own “I am” statements. These statements serve to empower you, reminding you of your identity and the strength inherent in self-awareness throughout your journey. They will also prove valuable as you progress through the course, shaping your business idea. The most impactful business ideas are rooted in our essence, reflecting our interests and strengths.
SELF
-
We hope you enjoyed reflecting on who you are and where you come from. None of us would be who we are without those who came before us, our community, and the earth we live on.
In the next exercise, we’ll think about how we are connected to everything around us.
" What we want to learn cannot be separated from the processes we go through while learning…we need to see ourselves in ecological relation to that which we want to know. Relations always come first."
Dwayne Donald, Papaschase Cree, Professor at the University of Alberta
