Personal Development

Choices, choices...

  • For many, starting university can be the first time they are faced with making their own critical decisions. Not only the course they chose, but whether to get up for that early tutorial, whether to study or go to the beach with friends, how much to drink or whether to drink at all. Having confidence to make good personal decisions comes from being comfortable with yourself and being true to your personal values.

  • UniSmart raises the subject of self talk. The messages we tell ourselves have a huge influence on what we can achieve.

  • Through our signature piece The Straightjacket of the Mind, it is vividly demonstrated how repeating negative messages can really tie you up in knots.

Students love the UniSmart experience! They appreciate and take on the messages. You only have to see the tears, hear the laughter and be blown away with the reception and long lasting reaction to this creative, challenging & exciting presentation.

It was very insightful regarding how the mind functions. It helped with self esteem and confidence.
