PREPARING FOR EACH SESSION

Your trainers recommend that you give some thought to your goals for each session. These goals are the outcomes that you wish to have realised by the end of each session. Your goals work as the starting point for each session and will almost certainly determine the outcome for you on that day: where you start is where you finish, unless you change your goal.

Goals such as “I’m just here to be here”, “I don’t have anything in particular to do today” and “I’m just going with the flow today” are a sign of lack of preparation and commitment to the training process. Remember what is written in the Training Outline: your trainers will only put in as much as you do. Also, remember that you will get what you ask for. Those who ask for what is important to them will get it in some way. Those who ask for nothing or very little will get nothing or very little. We urge you to imagine that you can leave each teleconference having realised, learnt, understood, experienced or practised whatever is the best for you on that day. When you put that into words you will have a goal. You can get some clues about what you need to do by looking at the course outline. You are also expected to work your way through the material in that outline and there is enough in there to keep even very experienced trainees busy for years.

THE STYLE

The style of the teleconferences is usually friendly and light hearted; sometimes it may also be very serious, considered, intense or emotional. Regardless of the style on a particular day, you can be sure that everything you experience and everything other people do are exactly what you need on that day and are directly relevant to you. So there is no need to imagine that others are doing things that you have no need to pay attention to or things that are irrelevant to you. Everything they are doing is important to everyone in the teleconference, including the trainers, even if you think you have heard it a thousand times before.
