Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the weekly time commitment?
|
Q: What is a rollout call? |
|
Each week you will have a 1/2 hour coaching call with your assigned coach. You will also have homework each week in your binder. Ideally we suggest you do your binder work each day, maybe 15-30 minutes a day. Some clients spend a little more time, some a little less. What's important here is that you will get out of the course what you put into it. The more focused and committed you are, the more benefit you will receive!
|
Your rollout call happens after you hire us and after you receive your course materials from us. During our rollout call we spend the time together to make sure you understand our process to give you a great foundation for what is to come. We talk through when & how you can expect to receive the materials as well as talk though how you can get the most impact with your personal priorities using our curriculum. We then answer any questions you have, and let you get to work!

Q: Can I wait until life calms down a bit to start?
To be blunt, no. You can’t wait until life calms down because you won’t do it later, regardless of how much you think you will now. And please understand that we say this from a place of love, not judgment! You can truly believe you will pick this back up later, because that certainly makes logical sense, but that isn’t how the human brain works. Right now, you are willing to do things you wouldn’t have done two weeks ago, and that you won’t do in two months from now – literally. That is the true power of your window of clarity.
Here is another way to say this - Each of us has a protective shell about ourselves that keeps us safe from society. The flip side of that protective shell is that it also keeps us confined into who we are. If you want to make change during your everyday life, you can, but you are essentially sanding away at that shell from the outside – this takes a long time and more persistence than most of us possess.
With the chaos that you're experiencing right now, that protective shell is shattered and in pieces on the ground. You are able to make true changes for yourself without having to break through that protective shell. But even as you read this, that shell is reforming, and if you wait ‘until later’ to do something for yourself, that protective barrier will be back in place, and you will have lost this opportunity.

Q: What happens if I don’t do one of the courses, that I view this as just a 'difficult time in life' and don’t use it as an opportunity to grow?
We really encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity that comes with chaos to work through whatever part of life has you stuck. This is more than just an idle suggestion – typically you're not in this situation when things are going well in your life. If you don’t take this chance to work on yourself, you run the risk of what is sometimes referred to as an AFLO (Another F’ing Learning Opportunity) – we didn’t coin that phrase, but it sure seems to fit.
Not that this exact thing would happen again, but if you don’t make the needed changes for yourself now, that same pressure/stress/stuck feeling will eventually return, and the next ‘opportunity’ will be after you do something that doesn’t make good sense in a relationship or your job or career or with your family. This is what happens in order to give you another opportunity for change. Needless to say, you don’t want too many of these opportunities because they don’t usually come associated with something pleasant, so please give us a call today. (877) 302-7710

Q: Will this work for me?

Q: Does my insurance cover your courses?
|
|
|
Yes, if you let it and are ready to do the work to change. We believe in the power of changing your mindset, and in the power of taking action to make changes real. To gain the most value possible from your course, you must unite both—the ideas with the action. We’re here to help you with direction, accountability and support, but it begins by helping yourself here!
|
You are welcome to contact your insurance company to see if they will reimburse you for all or a portion of the cost of our courses. We will be glad to support you in this effort to the extent we can. Though we’ve not yet had a client be successful in this, we believe it is only a matter of time until we can help an insurance company see past the short-term cost to see the long-term benefits that our courses provide.

Q: Can Blue Binder Project count as a court-required substance abuse treatment program?
The short answer to this question is that it does not replace a court-required substance abuse treatment program in Oregon, and, though we cannot give legal advice, it probably does not replace a court-required obligation in other states either (please verify this with your attorney).
Why is this? Because we did not design these courses to replace a substance abuse treatment program, or individual counseling, or a twelve-step program. Depending on what you need as an individual, each of these traditional resources can be very beneficial. The problem with these resources is that each takes time for you to gain traction with, and by the time you are moving forward with any of these resources, you’ve burned through most of your thirty-day window of clarity. Instead, we believe Blue Binder Project is the right way to start moving forward immediately! With the momentum of Blue Binder Project success moving you forward, you can then transition into these traditional resources as they become available.

Q: How do the weekly sessions with my coach work?
Your weekly coaching sessions are done by scheduled appointments on the telephone and can be done from your home or office, anywhere you can have some privacy and won't be interrupted. We know you are a busy person, and we want this to be convenient, During each call you will talk with your coach about your Blue Binder homework, the insights you are gaining and the changes you want to be working on.
Q: How do I know if I’ll benefit from Window of Clarity courses?
You know you will benefit because you are reading this. Seriously. You wouldn’t be on this site if our message didn’t resonate with you. Our message wouldn’t resonate with you if you weren’t ready to grow. So, quit reading these FAQ’s and call us or fill out the webform already!
