AW: persuading others to try OST ~ believing in ourself

Wed Feb 28 16:20:27 PST 2007

Hello dear Bui,

allow me to go right to the point I want to make: 

In your email below you I heard you express some beliefs about yourself:
"My concern is that in the situation I currently am in, nobody really
cares what kind of expertise I have, nor am I in any position of power."

I understand that this is your experience and that you feel powerless
and not heard. 

>From my understanding and learning during the last years I found that it
all starts with myself and my believing in being able to communicate my
message. As long as we see ourselves as powerless and unable to win
others ~ that continues happening. And probably no wording or conscious
strategy might be able to change this experience.

I found that the key to my personal power is my subconscious beliefs.
And in 2006 I had the great joy to learn the most powerful method I have
found so far for changing subconscious beliefs. This method is called
PSYCH-K.

My first experience with this I had in 2005 in Halifax at the OSonOS
when I got a taster of it through another OS facilitator. In January
2006 I took the PSYCH-K Basic Course and in February the Advanced. And
this that time my life has changed in an amazing pace. I have left
behind more self-limiting beliefs than I can count. I have been asked in
to do Open Space at the administration of the city I live in (someone
working there found me at our "Stammtisch"). I am finally able to charge
fees that feel appropriate for my skills. And I use "The Law of
Attraction" in other most powerful ways.

You can find a bit more about this on my Webpage www.mareikiele.de 

Also I know there is a PSYCH-K Workshop in Vancouver in May, 5-6. If you
want to enlargen your impact on the world around you I suggest that you
check this method out and then see how you are being heard and
understood. Details on the Vancouver Workshop are here:
http://wisdomways.net/PsychK/WorkshopSchedule.asp
By the way, this workshop is taught by Richard Schultz, like me an Open
Space facilitator and Genuine Contact trainer.

The official PSYCH-K Webpage is www.psych-k.com. There is also a book
and a DVD to get a first impression. 

All the best to you,
Marei

Hi Jack,

Thanks for your suggestions which I think would be very useful when
talking to clients/sponsors. My concern is that in the situation I
currently am in, nobody really cares what kind of expertise I have, nor
am I in any position of power. I am just a "regular" parent who is
trying to "sell" the idea of OST to the whole group. So I guess I am
looking for a short illustration that may get people excited about doing
something different. Something that will get them to say: "YES!! I wish
we could something like that at our school".

So if anyone has been in a similar situation, or knows of a short
illustrative example, I would very anxious to hear about that.

Thanks,

Búi

Great question Bui. Here are some of the questions we typically asks
clients/sponsors to get them excited about a possible OS event/process:

Do you want to hear in a single space what people are thinking, feeling,
talking and not talking about in other spaces? 
Do you want to give decision influencers and makers on this topic an
opportunity to understand the honest complexities and subtleties of the
topic?
Do you want to give people the opportunity to connect together on new
ideas and alternatives to existing practices? 
Do you want to help the community get to new levels of conversation
beyond where they are today?

Be well,

Jack
