If you are going to stand in front of a group of people and teach them about any subject, you had better be quite sure that you are a master of that subject! Nothing gives a class more joy than to catch the teacher out.
It is this requirement for a high level of learning that pressurises me (in a good way) into ensuring that I master subjects that I know I am going to have to teach.
When I say I am a devoted life-long learner I mean it and teaching others is part of the reward that I get from that learning. Of course, the real reward is seeing my clients releasing themselves to be themselves and then achieving more than they ever believed themselves capable of, just by using their natural talents.
When you teach you learn all the time. That is why I will be spending the next two weeks in the South West Indian state of Kerala with a studying with a group of NLP enthusiasts.
You may not hear much from me until my return. But you can be sure that I will have raised my game by the time I return.
