🕑 Added 2020-01-31 19:48:20 +0000 UTCThe Guidebook continues releasing, but for those of you who wanted to help out with proofing and haven't gotten around to it yet... there's still time! It will be some weeks before we go to print and both what has been released as well as what is coming still begs for more eyes on it!
Thanks so much to those who have helped with proofing so far, it really has made a difference, and thank you to each and every one of you for your support! You are allowing me to create the infrastructure for an LT team so that this project can outgrow me!
Excerpt from Part 2.0:
"We may have our own anxieties about teaching, especially at the beginning, but as we become more confident about our material, that confidence can overcome anxiety, transforming that anxious energy into bright performance energy, into excitement to share our product.
This transformation of nervous energy was an experience I had myself in the first open public workshops which took place as part of the Cyprus Project in Nicosia. I would turn up having promised great things and looking like I inhabited the outskirts of society as much as I did! Poorly dressed in other folks' old clothes, with a dog and a noisy bicycle, I’d see half the eyes in the room wish they hadn’t come the moment they caught a glimpse of me: ‘THIS is the guy?!’, and some would quickly look away as if to hide the way their faces openly displayed their shock. I quickly learnt to play off of that, and to enjoy it too; it was the first tension contour to resolve! Knowing that I would resolve that tension, I could enjoy it, a little like sitting in front of a cake you know you are about to eat!"
