The Story Continues..............................................................................
Super Learning
This was actually a very good class.
The Instructor told us he would teach us how to speak enough Italian for us to at least survive until we could learn more. I had a bit of a head start, but not much.
The first thing he did was give each of us an Italian name. I was Giuseppe the town barber. He gave us all a role to play in the little village we lived in. Others were customers, other business owners, and some were members of the village population.
He then explained that we were no longer ourselves and that all the junk in our minds about not being able to learn a language was gone. I was no longer OMM, but Giuseppe the barber.
Then he gave us a list of common words in Italian and they're meaning to study for 5 minutes. After that we spoke only Italian.
I kid you not, by lunch time we were speaking Italian only and were having a ball.
I gave quite a few haircuts and actually talked about the local soccer team to my customers.
This was Super learning. Get rid of our blocks to learning and we could learn.
I wanted this class to continue. I wanted to learn more about removing blocks that were holding us back from learning new things. Alas it was only a morning class.
This will probably be my last story in this Journal, unless I remember another special class.
Great going Giuseppe
