"This course has taught me a lifestyle to implement every single day!"
“Thank you for the opportunity to reconnect with my inner self. I am forever grateful. This course on Emotional Intelligence has by far helped me understand where my emotions are coming from. I am paying attention to how I wake up – like what are the thoughts & feelings I have in the mornings. These may seem little things, but so impactful. It has given me insights and helped me to understand myself better, and helped me become more conscious of the choices I make every single day leading to a better quality of life.
I realize that this is a lifestyle to implement every single day! Knowledge without action/implementation is useless.
I wish for everyone who desires growth and a better quality of life to invest in this course.”

"This course is for everyone who is serious about personal development!"
“I would suggest this course of international standards to everyone who can appreciate a large mirror with a lot of personal dimensions to be able to professionally and personally smoothly move through life!
For someone who does a lot of self reflection and is a fan of The Secret, Robin Sharma, and Louise Hay, I still had a lot of new personal insights and some great reminders from this course. The powerful thing about this course is being able to do it fully online, and still be able to have weekly calls with the group and chat with the inspiring trainer, who truly is a life coach. Besides that, the foundation of the course lies in advanced theories and are explained in simple terms by Sheetal, and the course is supported by effective and professional workbooks.
The EI types provide insight, especially during changes or in challenging times. I loved going through the life’s blueprint method and the visualization exercises guided by Sheetal.”

"I am now able to realize what my emotional triggers are and I have the tools to manage my emotions..."
“This course has been so beneficial to me, not just in my career, but in my personal life as well.
Being able to become aware of my emotions, and being able to regulate these emotions has made my life so much easier in the sense that, I’m now able to realize what my triggers are, and I have the tools to manage my emotions when those triggers present themselves. I loved the materials that go along with each module because they really make you dig deep and think about every aspect of your life. It makes you realize that YOU have the power to make a change. Even if you can’t change the situation, you can change how you act or react to those situations that are out of your control. I highly recommend taking this course, as it is definitely life changing.”

"I am now able to understand myself better and know how to deal with my thoughts, feelings, and emotions in any situation."
“I am now able to understand myself better and know how to deal with my thoughts, feelings, and emotions in any situation. This allows me to consciously choose how I respond to a certain situation or to others. I also understand much better now what Emotional Intelligence is and that by being aware of my emotions and having/keeping them under control, I have the opportunity to remain calm and to respond positively to matters, especially under difficult circumstances. I also pay full attention to all the negative emotional triggers that cause stress. I also learned how important Self-motivation is if you want to be able to set your goals and ultimately achieve them. Last but definitely not least, I learned how important it is to have good social and communication skills in order to have good relationships.
I want to especially thank the trainer Sheetal for the splendid way she presented this online course: she was very clear on every topic and the examples she mentioned made it easy for me to follow and complete the course.”

"Sheetal's voice calms you and it has a tone you want to listen to. Not only because the subjects are interesting, you just automatically pay attention while looking at the videos."
“My experience during the sessions is like a confirmation of what I believe in and what I thought it was my intuition telling me to do. I somehow can find myself in everything the trainer is telling and teaching us.
Sheetal’s voice calms you and it has a tone you want to listen to. Not only because the subjects are interesting, you just automatically pay attention while looking at the videosThe experience Sheetal is sharing is so common that you can place yourself into her shoes and can feel the emotions.
It made me realize I can not only reset, recharge but mostly reinvent myself. Life can become monotonous and you think you are happy, making changes does not mean you are unhappy and by means, you are doing something wrong, it means you find ways to make it positively adventurous again for you and automatically it will rub off to the environment around you.
To change the world and make it positive again do this training. Changing your world starts with you.”

"The course forces you to stop and rethink your life's purpose and provides guidance on your strategy to get there, thereby emphasizing that you have, at all times, the power to redirect and improve."
This course provides insights, with shared experiences, exercises, and group discussions, into Emotional Intelligence. It hereby provides tools to help understand and support your Emotional Intelligence. Although not all tools work for me, they did provide some that I still use. The most important factor to improvement of yourself highlighted in the course, is your own power of will. It emphasizes that you need your will to want to improve and that you, yourself have the power to improve. The course forces you to stop and rethink your life’s purpose and provides guidance on your strategy to get there, thereby emphasizing that you have, at all times, the power to redirect and improve. Improve your positive focus, emotions, and behavior and therefore growing as a person. It made me rethink my life’s road in pursuit of happiness by simply (this takes a lot of self-reminding to become a habit!) shifting my focus, energy and reminding myself what it is I am working towards. The hard times still come, but the course taught me how I can manage these better. Pursuing happiness is your choice and is therefore in your hands. This course can show you how to use your power.”

"It is like an eye-opener or like refreshment in knowledge."
Sheetal, was really patient (listened and advised perfectly). She gave also great examples/tips through the courses. I liked the method and the level of the course. I learned several things like about: 1. making my own blueprint, 2. about speaking, listening, and body language. Also, much more things, that made my trigger and sharp again so I could be more myself. I do look more in the eyes of the speaker. I just found a way how to learn to go through boring speech and talks. It is like an eye-opener or like refreshment in knowledge. Mostly I know the things but or I don’t think about it or I hesitated to use the knowledge. So when you want to fresh up your knowledge or want to have more confidence in yourself, take the course! “

"The trainer made me realize: first think about yourself, then about your environment, and then the rest."
“I am happy that I was able to participate in the (online) training “Reset, Recharge & Reinvent Your Life”. In the beginning, I was hesitant and ignorant about what to expect, but during the entire process, I learned during each lesson (video) what I am not doing well (enough). The trainer made me realize: first think about yourself, then about your environment and then the rest.
You have to know for yourself what stirs up your negative and positive emotions, you have to be more self-aware, but above all act more confidently. If you have this under your knees, you can deal better with your emotions, but also better understand the emotions of others. You can then completely determine your behavior YOURSELF.
For many, as has also been the case with me, there will be a barrier to follow such a training, but also to apply the knowledge. But what I also learned during the training: the key to your success is your perseverance!
After completing the training, I noticed through self-observation that I am dealing with a Serwan that has been reset, recharged, and especially reinvented itself (reinvent)!“

“With the COVID-19 pandemic taken hold of the country, the world, and in one way or another putting a strain on the mental health of many, taking care of oneself should be high on the list of one’s priorities. For me, also, it was long overdue to make a shift in my mindset to improve and overcome.

“Reset, Recharge & Reinvent is a very good course, which I recommend to anybody who is willing to grow at a personal level, but also who would like to learn tools in order to be a good leader for yourself. In my opinion, this course could also be called personal leadership.
Why personal leadership? Because as a leader you are personally responsible for your daily actions. In order to lead yourself you need to be aware of your emotions, you need to be aware of your emotional triggers, you need to understand, accept your personality treats and you need to learn how to manage yourself in various circumstances and surroundings.
During this course, there were many practical tools and exercises that allowed me to self-reflect, allowed me to be more observant and aware of myself and my surroundings but most importantly allowed me to put things better into perspective and learn how to manage myself better. In other words, it helped me to become a better leader to myself.
I will admit due to many circumstances in my life, even while doing the course there were moments, I felt many ups and downs. Despite all the ups and downs, I feel very grateful that some of the exercises in this course also helped me get through those “down” moments a little faster and helped me to stay positive.
Within the four modules, there were several topics we discussed, but there is a very simple thing that I will always remember. It might sound so simple and so logical, but for me, it had a positive impact which I am sure I will remember for the rest of my life. This is how I remember it: MOTIVATION IS A SKILL THAT YOU WORK ON ALMOST EVERY DAY. These might not be the exact words how Sheetal said it, but this is how I remember it. And somehow by consciously being aware of this simple fact, I have been able to keep moving forward, I have been able to keep learning and growing and I have been able to continue to motivate myself with several things in my life.”

“The whole aspects/topics were great. I liked the fact that it was practical and examples that I could relate to were used. It helped me a lot in understanding topics such as self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-motivation. The trainer, Sheetal, was excellent and could answer all questions asked and delivered the course in an interesting format. Not only me, but all of the participants found that her voice is soothing and calm. You can listen for hours and hours to her. It has encouraged me to think out of the box and reflect on my own behavior and skills. The fact that I really listen to what the other person is trying to say and not hearing to react. I have learned that listening is a way of telling someone you are important. The course is very interesting. It was full of important topics such as self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-motivation, etc. Sheetal communicated in a way that was easy to understand, provided answers to questions, clarified points, and was entertaining.
