Museletter  - May 2007

My Muse

I didn’t write last month because I didn’t feel that I had something to share that would be of value. And I don’t want to waste your time. This month I want to share some bad news and my views on it.

My introduction to the world of personal development came about as a result of attending a workshop called Outlook some 11 years ago. I remember saying to my friend Gerry the following week that the course was ‘a life changing event’ and for me it was. It began an interest in personal development that opened up many avenues of interest for me. It allowed me to really begin to understand who I was and what was important to me. I began to look for new challenges and refocused my life with more successful results. I changed my career, and I became very involved with the Outlook organisation with a view to running the trainings myself in due course.

I completely bought into the values of Outlook, excellence, being one’s best, empowering people, expanding our horizons, moving beyond one’s comfort zone, creating fun in our lives, and creating a purpose for one’s life and living it.

That’s the good news. For me and many many others the courses have made a tremendous positive impact in our lives and the lives of our loved ones. The bad news is that due to a drop off in the number of people recommending the courses, the organisation is going to have to close.

It simply is losing money and the good people who have been subsidising it for some time are no longer prepared to do so. There will be one more Outlook course on June 8-10th and if this is something you would consider, email me back and I’ll send you all the details, or go to www.outlooktraining.org/aboutoutlooktraining.htm 

This really may be your last chance to experience this amazing workshop and kickstart your life improvement.

As for me, this does mean a space has been created for something else to exist. What it is, I’m not sure. I am still committed to making a difference and supporting people to be their best. It’s been my belief that the best way to do this is a combination of the Outlook courses and one to one coaching. I will certainly be continuing with my coaching, and maybe with the courses I have created, maybe something new has to happen, we’ll see.

The learning in this for you may be around how you deal with change. Would you look at this as failure, or a new opportunity? Something to grieve over or to celebrate? Our attitude leads to our results, whether our attitude is positive or negative, empowering or disempowering, attitudes lead to actions or inactions that produce a result.

Book Recommendation

I haven’t recommended a book for a while but I so enjoyed The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini that I wanted to bring it to your attention. It’s a novel based in Afghanistan during the Seventies about the lives of two young boys, one born into privilege, the other his servant, and how the relationship is affected by circumstance.

It’s absolutely beautifully written, amazingly, considering the author’s first language is not English and is one of those books that make you want to turn off the world so you can just read it without interruption.

It’s also highly interesting to see how different cultures operate and the belief systems that underpin them. It’s easier to do this when the culture isn’t yours, and then one can see the consequences of these beliefs, both positive and negative. If you wish to purchase the book on Amazon, you can by clicking here.
