How will I make daily progress?

Time:Set the timer to 10 minutes for the Commit section.

Read:Each week, we choose an “action partner.” This is a group member that will help us keep our commitments. Action partners should contact each other during the week and report their progress to each other. Generally, action partners are of the same gender and are not family members.

Practice:Choose your action partner. Decide when and how you will contact each other.

I will practice today’s My Foundation principle and teach it to my family.

I will add to my savings—even a coin or two.

I will report to my action partner.

“Action and Commitment” (No video? Read page 14.)

Read:When we report on our commitments, we are more likely to keep them. Read the quote to the right.

Practice:Before the next meeting, use this commitment chart to record your progress. In the boxes below, write “Yes,” “No,” or the number of times you did the commitment.

Used “me in 30 seconds” with at least 20 people (Write #)

Practiced Foundation principle and taught it to family (Yes/No)

Added to savings (Yes/No)

Reported to action partner (Yes/No)

Read:Also, remember to track your personal expenses on the back of your My Path to Self-Reliance booklet.

At our next group meeting, the facilitator will draw a commitment chart on the board (like the one above). We will arrive 10 minutes before the meeting begins and write our progress on the chart.

Choose someone to facilitate the My Foundation topic in the next meeting. Ask him or her to read the inside front cover of this workbook to learn what facilitators do. He or she should facilitate in the same way as the facilitator did today:

  • Invite the Spirit; invite group members to seek the Spirit.

  • Trust the materials; do not add; do just what it says.

  • Manage the time.

  • Add energy; have fun!

Ask someone to offer the closing prayer.
