CSP 19 Navigating Life's Opportunities -- How to Get Out of Your Own Way

The content of this course is derived from the disciplines of sport psychology, positive psychology, and stress management. Concepts such as motivation, goal setting, energy management, and finding meaning will be discussed in a way that is directly applicable to daily living. Students will have the opportunity to engage in self-exploration in addition to being exposed to lives of individuals such as John Wooden, Viktor Frankl, and Morrie Schwartz (of "Tuesdays with Morrie"). Students will leave the class with a greater awareness of how to utilize their strengths and be equipped with strategies that foster resilience when dealing with challenges.
