• Can you "Imagine" pulling the very best processes, skills, practices and knowledge from over 500 different workshops, trainings, retreats and seminars?
• Can you "Imagine" compiling this information into one workshop and release it into the hands of a World Renowned Master Facilitator?
• Can you "Imagine" what accomplishments and successes you're going to have with these tools?

The new “Imagine Course” was a great success, as all of the participants and assistants can testify. Ask anyone who was there! Joe asked me to write this article about how it came to be designed. JJ started having an intention and even some dreams about a new course being designed. Kristy and JJ started sharing with me some of their favorite processes from other trainings they had been through like the Red Black Game and the surprise farewell process at the end of the training. I instantly recognized the value of some of their best modules, and could see why it brought the assistants back time and time again. I also recognized that I could add some of my expertise to the processes, and make them even more powerful. Then the idea struck me that if I added some of our best processes from all of our great menu, what we would end up with would be a “Best of the Best” combination, a dynamite course, and got very excited.

Simultaneously, I was in the process of re-designing Dream Makers Program for next year, and had some wonderful ideas for that design, and had been thinking about how invaluable the material from the “Spirit of the Awakened Warrior” Course is about overcoming defensiveness. Overcoming our own defensiveness is the great key to accelerating the pace at which one grows and progresses, accelerating their blessings. It always bothers me, that that course doesn’t get done but once a year or every other year, and I was committed to putting some of that material into another course, and to emphasize it for next years Dream Makers program.

In 2009 we will end Phase II earlier, so that all of the Awakening Grads can have an Awakening Support Program that will include “Spirit of the Awakened Warrior” Course (including the ropes course and fire walk) as part of that program, right out of taking Phase II!

The key in life is that if you want something different - then “own it.”

Own what works and what doesn’t without defensiveness. Own the adjustments and the corrections. I knew how exciting it would be have an introductory course that not only knocked them off their socks with amazing processes, but would bring an unprecedented level of ownership to new people and produce real results in shifting their lives. I’m very happy with the results.

When the idea of designing Imagine came up, I immediately saw that by combining this material on overcoming defensiveness with the Red/Black Game, it would create an unprecedented level of ownership without defensiveness.
