About our way forward

2. Remember that it is a journey

Change often happens in small steps. Sometimes it is two steps forward and one step back. In which case, it can be important to remind yourself that it is a journey and that every little change can make a big difference. As a group, you can help by encouraging and reminding each other.

In this module, you have chosen specific situations where you are to implement change. It is also a good idea to come back to the situation map after a few weeks. Perhaps you want to swap a pink Post-It for a yellow one, or a yellow Post-It for a green one? Perhaps you have come up with something else that works a lot better? It is important to stop and reflect in order enable you to improve and celebrate.

Person-centering on the person is not about working in a specific way in an individual situation, instead it is a comprehensive approach. We can always find situations and methods that help us become more person-centred. 

Apply trial and error and remember to share what you learn with each other.
