How to Use This Workbook

This mirrors the slides at the front of the room. As each stage of the RENEW Model™ is worked through, use this page to think, type and commit — in your own words, about your own situation. Everything you type is saved automatically on this device as you go.

Remember
The objective is not merely to learn the RENEW Model™. The objective is to use it — on one real area of your own life.
Session 3 · 5 minutes

Choose Your Breakthrough

Don't try to RENEW your entire life today. Choose ONE situation — this becomes your personal case study for the rest of the workshop.

What is the situation I want to change?
What would I like to experience instead?
Why does this matter to me?

My Live RENEW

Work through all five stages for the situation you chose above.

R
RECOGNISE
What thoughts are producing my results?
  • What keeps happening?
  • What am I telling myself about the situation — and about me?
The thought that could keep me stuck is:
E
EXAMINE
Is this belief true, or just familiar?
  • What evidence supports it? What evidence challenges it?
  • Is it fact, fear, assumption or interpretation? Where might it have come from?
If I continue believing this, it could cost me:
N
NEUTRALISE
What new thought earns this space?
Old thought
New thought
E
EMPOWER
Who am I becoming?
  • How would that person think and behave?
  • What would that person stop tolerating? What decision would they make now?
"The person I am becoming is someone who…"
W
WORK IT DAILY
What small repeated actions will make this real?
I WILL START
I WILL STOP
I WILL CONTINUE

The 7-Day RENEW Challenge

Transformation needs somewhere to begin. Commit to practising your new pattern for seven days.

The thought I am challenging is…
The thought I am practising instead is…
The person I am becoming is…
The behaviour I will practise is…
The evidence I will look for is…
Today's RENEW Check — one card per day
Prompts for each day: What did I notice? What did I challenge? What did I choose instead? What will I repeat tomorrow?

The 60-Second RENEW Reset™

Sometimes life happens in sixty seconds. Use the Reset in the moment, then take the action.

R
RECOGNISE
What am I thinking right now?
E
EXAMINE
Is that thought actually true or useful?
N
NEUTRALISE
What thought serves this situation better?
E
EMPOWER
Who do I choose to be in this moment?
W
WORK IT
What is my next constructive action?
Then take the action.
Session 7 · Final 5 minutes

My RENEW Commitment

Do I see something I didn't see before?
Have I identified a belief I need to challenge?
Do I know my next action?
