Guerrilla Marketing And Karate
The karate master learns everything necessary to slam his hand through the wooden boards. He doesn’t even think about the boards, only about seeing his hand on the other side of them. Their being shattered is not part of his vision. The board is merely an illusion. His hand beneath the cracked boards is the only reality the karate master will accept. Theory is what helped him earn his black belt, but he never would have earned it if he had not taken action.

An Integrated Training Assessment Program
An integrated assessment program also provides insight and development goals for the instructor and course design. Assessment is a diagnostic tool that ultimately helps the learners confirm what they have learned and helps the instructor plan for future learning or remediation. A well-built test is a quick and objective way to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the delivery of the learning program.

Training is a Journey Not a Destination
When I was thinking about this article, one of the things that got me wondering was why we put ourselves through training, through learning. I was over 30 when I learned to drive first and I remember praying that the driving instructor would not turn up, that he would forget me, that I wouldn’t have to go through that awful vulnerable vacuum of being a learner…I couldn’t believe that I would ever get to the stage when I could actually hold the steering wheel with one hand and change the gears with the other.

Karate for the Head Or Heart?
Many years ago, when I was teaching karate, I could usually tell how well my students would perform from their motivation to learn in the first place. Often it was just a passing fancy, an ego trip, or a belt. But for others it was a burning desire. Once, a university professor approached me and told me he wanted to become a black belt in karate. In fact, he confided, it had been his goal for over fifteen years. Now, for the first time, he inquired what it would take to make his goal a reality. I told him that to achieve this distinguished rank in karate, he would need to dedicate at least one hour a day for four years. He was visibly disappointed. After a moment, he said, "I had no idea it would take that kind of effort." He walked away and never again pursued karate.

Teaching Old Skiers New Tricks
We recently went on our final ski trip of the season to Maine and thought it would be a great idea to brush up on our skills by taking a couple of lessons. Our instructor turned out to be a twenty-something guy who talked a lot and knew his skiing inside and out. Our little group of students included two middle aged ladies from Montreal, a young couple from Boston, and a 73 year old man from Germany, who had skied all his life, but was trying out new parabolic skis for the first time.

The Online “Training” Myth
If you want to know more about a subject you could do any of the following: 1. Read a book. 2. Watch a video, 3. Attend a speech or workshop. 4. Enroll in an online course Now suppose that in addition to being more knowledgeable you wanted to become skillful at something. If could be anything like golf, karate, selling refrigerators, negotiating, making presentations, etc. The point is, you want to become truly proficient. Your objective is not just to know something; you want to be able to do something, and do it well. If skill is your objective then your only option is to practice with an expert coach under realistic working conditions until you achieved fluency.
