In this module, we have reflected on motivation and expectations in the preparation phase of cross-cultural volunteering. Understanding your motivation and expectations before embarking in your short or long term project will:
_Increase your efficiency as you work toward your goals
_Drive you to take action
_Encourage you to engage in health-oriented behaviors
_Help you avoid unhealthy or manipulative behaviors, such as risk-taking and addiction
_Help you feel more in control of your life
_Improve your overall well-being and happiness
