I take this great opportunity to tell you how my life changed after being trained by you with fifty others in your breakthrough workshop ‘The Finishing Touch’.
I should start from the day when it was announced in our college that, there will be a personality development course and there would be a presentation by you. First, I was confident that I have a good personality and I don't require any such course, That's why I decided that I will not even think about it.
My friends saw you in the college premises and the word went around that you have winning ways a ready genuine smile and so we thought why not attend a demo class and find out what it was about.
When you walked in, we were struck by the way you held yourself and the cool casual manner in which you addressed 300 odd students. What went in to our minds was if this person can convince all of us to do his workshop, we can convince any recruiter of our worth! We therefore enrolled.
NOW A NEW JOURNEY BEGINS.......
On the first day of the training, you arrived and began the session assuring us that you were not a professor/teacher in the conventional sense. You said you were a coach fixed on the goal of making us win and that we are free to say anything, ask questions, clarify matters on our deepest fears and concerns. This put us all at ease as we knew here is one who has arrived in to our life to make us WIN and SUCCEED in life. That is exactly what happened to each of us who attended your workshop.
The first day’s workshop on corporate communication was excellent. We learnt how to speak and communicate at the workplace.
The next ‘Understanding Body Language for Interviews and business’ was something none of us were even aware about. It was mind blowing particularly when we learnt how to elicit other people’s strategy by just studying their body language and understanding why they behave the way they do.
Then u said something which remains with me till this very day. You asked us to place the twenty three years of our life in front of us as you when you deliver the seminar ‘You can If you think you can’ where you explain everything that happens in life such as ‘how others get control of our life and run it;’ why we get upset; how to get along with negative minded people and a million other things and by evening, our whole life just fell in place and we discovered why things went wrong in some parts as we grew and went through school and college.
That day u told us how to enjoy each and every moment of life. That day, I learnt how to get myself out of the states of being ‘sad’ and in ‘bad moods’.
You theory on meditation and how to overcome stress and particularly depression is something I can never forget. This is the lesson for a lifetime. This was the most important session for me in particular because I was always highly tensed thinking about the tough days I had gone through in life. I was caught up so much in my own thinking of those terrible days as a result I was so negative minded that I was not able to get along freely with people.
Your training is life changing. Everyday is a new experience as you unfold principles slowly in your own style without repeating yourself again. Everything you unfold of life is like the beautiful flower that unfolds itself. Similarly, ‘The Finishing touch’ unfolds itself slowly or I can say that life changing experience begins slowly and steadily providing us the new path to success and achievement.
The grooming session teaches us the difference between good looking and looking good.
So if you are not a good looking person, you can look good through correct grooming that can make a huge difference to your personality.
The next session was the most important session as in that session u told us about devotion to god and how we can turn even negative events to work in our favour. From that day, I started working in that direction and truly, I have achieved and accomplished, for the first time in life, success in many aspects of my life.
The rest of our training were the interview techniques, group discussions that is how we can crack the toughest interview and the most difficult interviewers effortlessly by understanding how to slot them and model them effectively so they begin to feel that I the interviewee is his kind of person. These are the fine details which one learns only through feeling and practicing them in the sessions you held but cannot be defined.
So your training leaves a great impact in our heart (deep inside me) and works itself out in the way I appear, and behave with others. I am glad it has brought about huge change and people around me often say that I have changed a lot for the better. This is the matter that gives a lot of pride and satisfaction.
What I have expressed are not mere words, but feelings I find it difficult to find appropriate words to express better.
Whatever I have written here is only a drop in the ocean of knowledge you have provided me and all of us who participated in the training.
Thank you for your wonderful support. I am really looking forward to experience it once again.
