Here's the original notice about this call:
Last December Michael Stratford gave a GLT Community Call entitled - The Art of Provocation. I had so many comments and emails from people saying how much they loved the call including ones weeks later from people listening to the recording of it. If you haven't heard it you can catch it here - .
As you probably know, Michael co-developed and co-presents the Core Dynamics Coach Training Program with me and we'll be teaching it together again this March -
Michael was such a hit with his call in December that I've asked him to come back for an encore performance on February 12. His topic this time is - "Breaking the Certainty Addiction: Living in the Wonder of Uncertainty."
The call will be at 9:00 AM on our bridge line -
404-920-6610 - Access code - 374812#
Plan on coming early as there's limited room on the bridge.
Here are Michael comments about this upcoming call -
It's always fascinated me that we seek certainty in a world that is defined by constant change. It's a form of looking for something where it is not. We foolishly seem to base our confidence in things we are "certain" of such as a relationship, job, or our health; and when that certainty leaves, we feel ineffective, tentative, and often helpless or fearful. These experiences then lead to the intellect's attempt to counter the feeling by trying to control things in one direction or another. Whether it's in the way we view the past so that we can feel okay about it, or in the way we interact with the present so we feel we can move forward into the future without risk and the subsequent fear it generates, these strategies are compensations created out of our discomfort with uncertainty. This is why we have developed a goal setting mentality. It's an attempt by the mind to make 'certain' something we desire occurs, and like HeMan, Master of the Universe be able to declare "I have the Powerrrrrrr!" We're going about it all the wrong way. Attempting to be certain about something as ephemeral as the human condition is like eating air when you're hungry. It may seem like you're doing something but ultimately there's no 'food.' If you'd like to break the addiction to this form of trying to force an outcome as well as the addiction's other forms, then come join the community call. I guarantee you will get something transformative by attending the call....I think.... unless of course something else is there to happen.
