We could end there and people would probably be satisfied. But we keep going. Even though the next step can get tricky.
We connect to other ways of thinking that take some getting used to. Like riding a bike, new thinking feels awkward at first, without seeming particularly new or effective. Yet with practice, your balance automatically improves.
When our daughter couldn't ride a bike without training wheels, we got her a scooter. A week later, she was riding her bike. We never taught her a thing.
This is the way we like to teach. Where everything you learn is self-taught. Where what you learn is not a matter of our opinion, but what works best for you under the circumstances.
In our workshops, we invite you to work on real problems, not mere exercises. There are several reasons for this:
Using real problems means that people are often disappointed if, after a couple of hours of workshop, the problems don't seem to have been solved. Still, they report significant improvement in other areas of their lives. They don't notice how they are learning to solve their problems, because it feels natural.
When we exclaimed to our daughter that she was actually riding her bike, she said, "Oh, yeah." And that was it.
