What We Learn Isn’t Always What We Think We Need
- Posted by: Joe Williams
A few years ago, a Dialogue group started making a “List of Firsts” on a flip chart, highlighting and documenting all the “firsts” participants experience throughout the week. I’ve kept the tradition alive with each group. The first couple of days, everyone seems to just stare at the blank flip chart sheet on the wall. And then something happens and they start filling it out like there’s no tomorrow.
Not all the learning during the week takes place in the formal class setting. Far from it. The beauty and uniqueness of Dialogue is that everything in our environment is a teacher–from the ranch horses to the walk through the early morning desert.
What we come seeking is often found in the most unexpected of places.
