Identifying the Most Usefull Courses

I always find reality based courses the most useful and life changing. It’s one thing to go to a weekend course and get fired up and motivated. Then by Tuesday forget everything you learned once you've lost the feeling and go back to life as usual. But what I call a reality based courses are courses where you learn some skill by actually appying it in the real world. As opposed to just talking about it. For example learning how to build motivational courses that you might want some day to put on by learning how to build communication courses through the Team Mangement and Leadership Program with Landmark Education.

To really master any new skill takes about 10 minutes a day 7 days a week for 24 days. 6 days a week you get a 60% change and it drops off from there. The goal of any transformational course or motivation course is to change your life. Many people go to these kinds of courses to feel good, but the good feelings leave very quickly. The feelings leave quickly because they have not mastered the ability to cause the improvements in thier life that the motivational speaker wants them to be able to cause for themselves. See the motivational speaker or course leader wants you to be living the life of your dreams. And most people could be living that life if they stopped letting all the circumstances (that we all have) stop them.

What you learn in a lot of these courses is that feelings come and go like summer storms, but what your committed to always is there. Being able to identify what your committed to in the moment gives you real freedom. You might be upset and committed to everyone knowing it, that doesn't fly if what your really committed to is treating others as you would like to be treated.

So when you take on a longer and more intensive reality based training you build muscle in identifying what your committed to and not letting the feeling of the moment stop you. Many people don't have what they want in life because they let fear stop them. What if you could act in spite of fear? (The fear never goes anywhere by the way, but if you gain skill in acting in spite of fear you then have power in your life to make a difference). Acting in spite of fear is called courage, and the only way to get courage is to act in spite of fear in the moment, yeah as in right now!

After a course we get back into life and we are dealing with the same circumstances and the same people who don’t know we took this great course and they don't know the impact it had or they make fun of you taking this new course and then next thing you know all the work you did over the weekend gets lost.

Now once you’ve taken the basic introductory courses many times the self improvement companies or gurus offer more advanced course work which I highly recommend. What you want to get to by doing that is to be able to get to the point where you are generating the feelings and actions produced during the course, daily, in your life.

Practicing what you learned in the real world is a great way to master what you are learning and to do it in the presence of a coach or in a safe training environment is the most reliable way to get the results you want.

Many of the courses I have taken offer real world trainings later on. The Van Tharpe trading courses eventually offer real trading with real money working with a coach, but after the basics. Landmark education offer the Introduction Leadership Program which is where you get trained in filling up Landmark courses. This is valuable if you ever want to be a motivational speaker yourself. Plus that program has been called the greatest leadership program in the world by different people in the industry. Apple, The Navy, IBM all agree also and they pay $20,000 to get their people the same 6 month training that Landmark offers to people in ILP FOR FREE. Imagine 6 months of leadership and challenging training with a coach for free (blows MY mind).

Other courses and educational programs offer tips and techniques. Those are ok but are usually forgotten. I mean what are the top 10 words you can use, or the top five communication techniques that will help you….. You forget that stuff 2 seconds after leaving the course.

What I look for in a course is walking away with whatever I am learning being a part of me. It should come naturally and easily. One of the promises is after Landmark's Team Management and Leadership Program is that you will be able to form teams of people with freedom and ease in any given situation. Well after 1 year (yes 1 year) of being trained to form a team of people building several communication programs they definitely delivered on that promise. Where else are you going to find that for $850. NOWHERE trust me.

The other place I found to get trained as a marketer on the internet is www.SimpleNetPRofits.com (my site). Stone Evans trains you to becomes a marketer by actually having you create your own money making internet empire. You get coaching and lessons in his 30 Days to Success course. It is filled with ideas and step by step instructions that are simple to understand. They have your links spread throughout so you just click and follow instructions. He sets up the empire for you and consolidates it for you FOR FREE. Amazing! I highly highly recommend this course and signing up and getting trained. It’s will cost some money, but you will end up making money eventually (perhaps sooner than late depending on your commitment level). You get the education and you get to earn at then same time.
