Carpe Diem: Organizing Ourselves to Maximize Time


 

The goal of this course is to get participants started on a life-long path to becoming more effective with how we use time.

This course is based on lessons that the facilitator, Percy D’Souza, Peer Supporter and Executive Director, GraceWins Peer Support, has learned and applies every day in his daily endeavour to realize his unique potential ; lessons from a variety of inspired sources, especially two seminal works in personal improvement literature: The The Power of Now – Eckhart Tolle and 7 Habits of Highly Effective People – Stephen Covey.

Percy D’Souza

GraceWins is an expression of Percy’s own life journey: from losing almost everything at the depths of his ‘dark nights of the soul’ which, among other things, included a diagnosis of ‘severe, treatment-resistant, psychotic depression’; to passionately living in the moment every day since, by grace, he was given a second chance at life in the spring of 2018. This is the core value Percy brings and realizes through GraceWins. He also brings to GraceWins a unique blend of skills earned through his diverse academic [PMP, MBA (Ivey), Post Grad – Communications (NMIMS), Electronics Engineering (MIT, Manipal)] and professional [Mental Health Peer Support, Healthcare Sales & Marketing, Project Management, Corporate Communications] experiences. And bold, maverick passion for the work @GraceWins.
