This document outlines an agenda and materials for a workshop called One Change Club aimed at helping participants build good habits, one at a time. The agenda includes sections on change, self-awareness, motivation, habits, tips for forming new habits, and creating a 30 day plan. Key points include that change is difficult but possible with small steps and persistence, the importance of self-awareness and acceptance in driving change, using intrinsic motivation and tiny habits to form new behaviors, and providing support and accountability over 30 days to help participants achieve their goals.
