This interview is a success story – well, two actually… Dr. Tad James and Dr. Adriana James interviewing the two freshly-certified Master Trainers of NLP: Gina Mollicone-Long from Canada and Ewan Mochrie from the UK.
The NLP Trainer’s Training in Nevada, USA has just finished and the two candidates – who were in the Master Trainer Program for several years – have just been certified as Master Trainers of NLP by Dr. Tad James, Dr. Adriana James, The Tad James Company and the American Board of NLP – having reached the degree of consistent excellence required by the award of this prestigious title.
Watch this interview and let that be an inspiration for those of you who aspire to become most excellent in the field of NLP. Listen to both Gina and Ewan tell their stories – how they started NLP, what did they do before and after entering the field of NLP… how you take someone from not knowing anything about NLP and inspire them to walk the path to becoming a Master Trainer of NLP – and thus help Transform the Planet – and, most importantly, what does it take to become a Master Trainer of NLP… Enjoy!
Gina told Tad and Adriana and the class of new NLP trainers in Las Vegas, Nevada, a very inspiring story. Coming from “The Star Thrower” (or “starfish story”) originally is part of a 16-page essay of the same name by Loren Eiseley (1907-1977), published in 1969 in The Unexpected Universe.
“An old man had a habit of early morning walks on the beach. One day, after a storm, he saw a human figure in the distance moving like a dancer. As he came closer he saw that it was a young woman and she was not dancing but was reaching down to the sand, picking up starfish and very gently throwing them in the ocean.
“Young lady” he asked, “why are you throwing star fish into the ocean?”
“The Sun is up, and the tide is going out, and if I do not throw them in they will die.”
“But young lady, do you not realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it? You cannot possibly make a difference.”
The young woman listened politely, paused and then bent down, picked another starfish and threw it in the sea, past the breaking waves, saying, “it made a difference to that one!”
“The old man looked at the young woman inquisitively and thought about what she had done. Inspired, he joined her in throwing starfish back into the sea. Soon, others joined, and all the starfish were saved.”
“I would like to believe that here at The Tad James Co., together with you, our present students and past graduates… we all are making a difference on the planet.”
This is what made these two people into NLP Master Trainer Success Stories.
