What is The Transformation Project?

Our vision is to increase peace, love and joy in the world.  How?  Through education, because as Nelson Mandela said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”  By teaching individuals the skills they need to transform how they feel and their behaviors, we will empower them to return to their true selves, to “goodness.”

A professional teacher and instructional designer with 44 years of experience , I have devoted the past 23 years to studying why people do what they do.  To me, the skills you need to change any behavior you choose are more important than anything else we learn in our lives.  Why?  Because all self-destructive behaviors and conflicts between people are related to people’s inability to use those skills effectively.

Through the global reach of the Internet, nominal tuition costs, and a scholarship fund for those in need, we intend to make this education available to the masses.  Imagine the potential impact if this program went viral … we have!  We just need funding to begin developing the online courses and get this movement started.


What About You?

Are YOU … living your life … as YOU?  Do you ever feel disconnected from what is truly important, to YOU …  like you are living somebody else’s life … like your life is on autopilot, and the compass is broken?  Do you want to return to being … YOU?


What You Will Learn

This program will teach you practical, valuable skills you can use immediately and every day of your life.  You will learn how to:

  • Transform how you feel … regardless of what is happening in the world around you
  • Conquer anger, anxiety, worry, fear, hatred, sadness, depression, loneliness, frustration …
  • Become more peaceful, loving, joyous, happy, confident, certain …
  • Free yourself from habitual patterns of thought (and behavior) that are not serving you, for example:

       Ø  “Whenever my spouse says that to me I automatically get upset.”

       Ø  “I always worry so much when you … “

  • Respond more effectively to life’s challenges
  • Stop relying on the excuse, “I can’t help it, that’s just who I am.”




Why Our Educational Program Will Stand Above All Others

  • It is uniquely focused on increasing goodness in the world by helping individuals recapture their true nature.
  • Based on 20+ years of research and verification through practical application in the real world, drawing from dozens of thought leaders and programs, you will learn the most important, fundamental concepts and skills available for transforming how you feel.
  • Unlike other educational programs in this field, it will be developed by professional instructional designers using state-of-the-art teaching strategies and online education principles.  Over a 70+ year history, these strategies and principles have been researched, tested and proven to work … always.
  • Because of our extensive experience in designing educational programs, we know feedback from program participants is essential to creating a program of maximum effectiveness.  Therefore, we are committed to a Perpetual Improvement Program (PIP).  This is a joint effort between our team and every program participant via their: 

       Ø  Suggestions and comments on how to make the program better, 

       Ø  Participation in the learning activities because every interaction will be recorded, enabling our design team to identify specific areas for improvement, and

       Ø  Responses to lesson assignments that may be selected for inclusion in an extremely rich database of examples from which other participants can learn.

  • Your experience will be individualized based on your specific learning needs because you will:

       Ø  Learn at your own pace

       Ø  Get as much practice as you need to become proficient

       Ø  Review as often as you like/feel necessary

  • That’s why everyone who completes this program will learn the skills they need to transform how they feel and what they do.

Why Us?

We are passionate about making a contribution, about giving back to the world.  One piece of advice on setting goals that stands out above the rest is:  For a goal to be really effective in motivating you, it must be a really BIG goal, one that has the potential to positively affect everyone in the world!  The Transformation Project© has that potential, and THAT’S what drives us.

We are fortunate in having been blessed with certain gifts.  These are talents and skills we have nurtured and developed throughout our careers.  And now we have the opportunity to use them in making a real difference in people’s lives, worldwide.

Paul A. Repicky, Ph.D.

In founding Return to Goodness©, Dr. Repicky has drawn upon his two areas of greatest passion and expertise, human behavior and teaching.  Driven by his fascination with the question, “What makes people do what they do?” over the past 23 years he has read extensively, participated in dozens of educational programs (including certification as a personal coach in 1991), and personally tested the effectiveness of every concept and skill he could find relevant to that question.  All the time he was analyzing and evaluating to determine the fundamental principles that when applied consistently produce observable, reliable results.  The findings from that quest will form the core content for RTG’s online educational program.

Using his academic training that included three graduate school degrees in instructional design and teaching, he embarked on a 44-year career that has encompassed secondary school teacher, college professor (at three medical schools, a university, and a community college), and corporate trainer/ instructional designer for companies in the healthcare industry and commercial aviation (e.g., Northwest Airlines and American Airlines).  When personal computers started to grow in popularity, he immersed himself in the potential of computer-based education by serving as a Senior Instructional Designer and project manager with two pioneering companies (1988-1991) in that area.  This background laid the foundation for his current experience in developing and teaching online courses that take full advantage of the extraordinary power of the Internet.

Mitch Cardinal

Mitch has nearly 20 years experience architecting and developing software and systems, user interfaces, design and business development in various industries including high tech, energy, healthcare, legal and finance.  His talents and expertise include: Software and Systems Development, Web Design & Development, Graphic Design, Video Editing, Motion Graphics, Team Leadership, Consulting, IT, Business Development, Branding and Funding.  Recently, he provided project leadership, architecture and software/ systems consulting services to one of the leading global commercial banking solution providers and sporting goods companies.

Carmen Payne

For 25 years in Corporate America, Carmen Payne was influential in consistently turning business visions into reality by developing and executing action plans that connected the business strategy and the operation.  Her expertise in creating new revenue streams, streamlining operations, sharpening marketing efforts, and developing people extends to mature companies, startups, and restructures.  Carmen recently launched her own business, Champion Small Business Consulting, to help Entrepreneurs execute their business building plans.  Her forte’ is getting people’s minds in order on paper through a 1-Day Strategic Planning Session that documents their vision, long and short-term priorities, and the weekly dashboard of activities that keep them focused and on track to their goals.  She is passionate about reaching her full potential and thrives on the opportunity to serve others.
