Training
Here is the deal about training. There is A LOT of information out there. I will be a student for life, there is too much opportunity to improve and expand.
I L O V E to learn and make an effort to seek training that offers something I don't feel I am naturally inclined towards, or maybe even resist. I suspect this is a good way to grow. The thing is, no one approach has ever proven to be more effective than another. So I keep reading, listening, and asking.
​
You have probably read books, know theorists, and love podcasts that I know nothing about. If it's important to you, let me know and I am happy to look into it.
