This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 21, 2008:
In a formal sense, I'm teaching people how they can change their lives using hypnosis and NLP. This is beginning to feel like my life's work, whether I'm teaching one-to-one to enable people to get specific and lasting changes, or whether I'm teaching a workshop or NLP training.
But it goes deeper than that. Whetever our calling is we have - let's call it a duty - to share what we can do on a daily basis, with whoever needs it. When we're out and about, with friends, at work, wherever - if we can offer something that will improve a life, in however small a way, we must do it. On that level we're all teachers and we all have something to offer.
I have no problems with teaching in exchange for money. Certain providers of food and other goods seem to require it. I also have no problem in carrying out random acts of kindness and teaching people, even without them knowing what's happening, how they can change. I've never met anhone who doesn't want to feel at least a little better - even if they resist it with their conscious mind ... which some do :-)
