TWO MORE WEEKS BEFORE KICK-OFF
Scott Miller and I are now all set for our 4th cohort of the Deliberate Practice Web-Based Workshop, which kicks off on 29th of Nov 2021. You'd be sent practical content every Mondays and Fridays. during the 10-week period of the course. Scott and I, and the rest of the community will be there walking through this deep learning journey.
You can go at your own pace. Plus--this is a BIG PLUS--you'd have a LIFETIME ACCESS to the course. Yep, no monthly subscription fee. When we update any of the content, which we are likely to given that we are now writing a follow-up book to Better Results, called The Field Guide..., you'd also get the latest in the course.
Registration is now open to a limit of 40 participants. (Why limit? Well, it's hard to manage a bigger group and we would lose an intimate connection if it was any bigger a group.)

🇸🇬 Performing vs Learning
Listen to this podcast episode #5. When Performing Impedes Learning on why I think an over-emphasis on performing can impede learning (Yes, this is coming from a person who was brought up in Singapore, a country with high praise on performance).
⏸ Words Worth Contemplating:
One has to investigate the principle in one thing or one event exhaustively . . . Things and the self are governed by the same principle. If you understand one, you understand the other, for the truth within and the truth without are identical. ~ Er Cheng Yishu, 11th century.
Reflection: Make a list of your guiding principles. How did these principles play out in your life and clinical practice? What were its first seeds?
