I had forgotten how super it is to work with and uses a very easy version of Jung to help people understand who they are at work. Anyway, that is not the point of this blog.
Something that occurred to me during the training which I had forgotten. It is easy to over prepare. There is also, for me, a thing going on which means unless I prepare well it is not going to go well.
Something happened today to remind me of an important lesson. I had prepared but wanted to do just a little bit more this morning. Then the trains played up. Queues, missing a train, not being able to sit down for my journey. I suddenly lost that time. It was very disturbing and quite annoying.
I decided it was beyond my control. I therefore could not do any more prep. So, I decided to focus on making sure I was ready, relaxed, focussed and listening. This enabled me to use something I would call 'relaxed intelligence.' As it turned out, everything went well. Everything I needed to remember just popped into my head when I needed it to.
I believe this was due to getting myself into the right resourceful state, relaxing and being able to respond to the group properly.
Note to self: Screw up the prep time more often!
Take care
Paul
