In this episode, Alex talks with Greg who along with his wife has created the hugely successful ‘College Flight Plan’ program that helps young people to gain confidence and clarify what their values, purpose and passion are so that they can gain acceptance to the right course for them at college.
Greg explains the benefits for those who undertake the college flight plan and how a growth and success mindset changes everything
KEY TAKEAWAYS
We help students figure out their values are, what their purpose is and what they are passionate about
Young people measure themselves against perfection because of social media
You should only ever measure yourself against yesterday’s specific accomplishments
It’s about having a growth and success mindset
We teach four success elements health, wealth, wisdom and relationships and setting lifetime goals for these areas
You need to focus on your own results, not on other peoples
With a growth mindset, you can say ‘I don’t know that yet”
You can learn from your mistakes if you know how to look at them and ask yourself what you would do differently next time
If you have an accountability partner the chances of you completing something are greatly increased
They take all their self-discovery and put it into their applications
People who have gone through the program have a competitive edge over others
We work alongside students to help them understand what is important to them and what they are good at
Students can build on each of the steps in the program
BEST MOMENTS
‘It really is transformational for them’
‘Everyone should have the tools to discover their unique values, strengths and purpose’
‘It’s about making a commitment to your future’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Beth and Greg.. in their own words
We all want our children to grow up and be well-adjusted, successful adults who make a difference!
With more than 20 years of one-on-one consulting experience, we have worked with hundreds of students and young professionals to help them gain confidence by empowering them to use their strengths and values to set goals and develop individual plans for their lives. If your child is having trouble figuring out what their purpose is, we can absolutely help.
We love everything about our work, but we are most excited about guiding students with practical and proven tips and techniques that provide clarity and confidence.
As parents...
We understand how helpless parents can feel as the college years approach, and their child doesn’t know what they want to study. If students could just find a way to discover their natural gifts, the choices would be much clearer.
As professionals...
We believe students deserve the tools to discover their unique core values, strengths, goals, and purpose. Let us share them with your student!
