What is training: what is the use of it?

Today, such words as "training", "coach" are incredibly popular.

Yes, and I myself repeatedly in my articles recommend you to attend trainings and do not hide that I often follow my own advice and go to group classes.

Anyone interested in self-development should know what is the training of , because it has long become an important part of modern life.

Do you still have prejudices against coaches and what they teach in their classes?

Maybe the whole point is that you did not understand the essence of the matter and became victims of stereotypes?

Do you even know what training is? !

I started talking about stereotypes not by chance.

I have a facebook buddy.

I personally do not know her, but we have real friends in common.

She is a stupid woman, a former university teacher, constantly working on herself, reading a lot, raising interesting topics in her posts, but she has some pathological hatred for training and everything related to them.

Almost through one facebook post it does not tire of running into them, and, often even when the essence of the issue it raises, the trainings have nothing to do.

More than once I wanted to intervene and ask who of the coaches had so offended her, because, as for me, behind such hatred should hide only a personal, and extremely unfortunate, experience.

But I somehow did not dare to do this, and I do not have much time to argue in the FB.

And after the next post, which was again attached to the training( although it was there as the fifth wheel to the stated topic) and asked the question "How long will these coaches exist, these charlatans?" Could not stand another my facebook friendand flew into the hater of trainers.

In the course of a very entertaining dispute it turned out that the lady, who with such passion called the people to barricades and called to exterminate all coaches and personal growth coaches, does not even really know what training is and none of them was.

She just became a victim of stereotypes.

What kind of word is so interesting: "training"?

"Training" - derived from the English word train, which translates as how to educate or train.

This is a kind of method or form of interactive training, during which certain knowledge, skills and skills are being developed that help in personal and professional growth.

Since training is one of the forms of group training, it can be assumed that it exists long ago.

If we talk about the coach who first used the term and began to conduct activities that differ little from modern ones, it was Dale Carnegie.

He even in 1912, a special center for training was founded.

What is coaching and what is it for?

Training is not just a lecture, it's something more cool and interesting.

From the banal lecture, it differs in that:

• material is not just read by the teacher to bored and yawning students, but also is immediately worked through by them;
• in the classroom is necessarily present not only theory but also practice;
• are formed not only your knowledge, but also - skills.

What is training and what kinds of training is it?

The distant people think that trainings are exclusively for business or psychology.

They say that young charlatans are brainwashing people, although they do not have the necessary knowledge and skills.

In fact, it turns out that such cave representations about trainings and coaches are not entirely true.

Trainings are different:

1. Skills .

   That is, the whole activity is dedicated to training a specific skill.

   You can pump any skills you like.

   For example, sailors learn to stay on the water surface for a long time to survive a shipwreck.

   Businessmen or managers do not need this skill, but almost all of them want to improve their negotiation skills.

2. Psychotherapeutic , which addresses the psychological problems of participants.

   Usually one lesson to understand the problem and solve it is not enough, it takes several hours to work with the coach.

3. Socio-psychological. Most often, it is devoted to the formation of interpersonal relations, human adaptation to society and other important issues.

   Such trainings are often held for children of different ages in American schools and kindergartens.

   Our educational institutions do not hurry to adopt such an experience.

4. Business training - , which aims to improve the knowledge, skills and skills of people who are engaged in business, want to increase sales, increase their incomes, etc.

5. Mixed type, when at the training are engaged in all a little bit of .

   For this kind of training to bring its own benefit, it is necessary that the occupation last long, for example, hours 6-8 with breaks.

Who needs training and what to expect from them?

Training is a lesson in a group.

Usually it's 10-15 people, but training can be more crowded.

Forms and tools that the coach uses:

• lecture;
• discussion;
• game;
• viewing and analysis of video;
• demonstration;
• debate;
• meditation;
• exercises, etc.

I believe that training is needed for every person, especially if you:

• feel insecure in yourself and in your abilities;
• can not build relationships with others;
• want to increase their income and their professional skills;
• have some fears;
• suffer from attacks of aggression and often get into conflicts;
• want to develop your creativity;
• strive to constantly learn something new.

Do not be afraid of classes in the group.

This is the only way you can understand that the difficulties you are facing are a fairly common problem that you are not alone in your troubles.

And you can learn different ways to solve a particular problem and hear opinions( often diametrically opposed) on this or that question.

It is in group training that truth is revealed much more often and faster than in individual sessions with a psychologist or a coach.

The video below shows one more explanation of what is the training of

and how it differs from other types of training:

Why are people afraid to learn what training is better?

People for various reasons do not want to learn what training is and attend them, but the most common reasons are only 5 :

1. Laziness.

   Yes, that laziness, which does not allow to develop, learn something new, change yourself and your life.

   But remember that lazy people rarely become successful people.

2. Greed.

   Of course, any training( whether higher education, courses, lectures, master classes or trainings) costs money.

   It's a shame to spend money for a lesson with a coach?

   And for rags, unnecessary gadgets, or regular gatherings with friends - do not be sorry to spend it?

3. Unsuccessful experience.

   Yes, not all coaches are masters of their business, among them there are also charlatans, ignoramuses and muddleheads, but it is impossible for one person to put a cross on the training system that has been formed for years.

   If you did not like one trainer in one gym, would you really stop playing sports and start calling to close all gyms?

   No, you will go to another coach.

   You should also do the same in case of failure with the coach. The megalomania.

   I'm smart, everyone is fooling around.

   And what can fools teach me, so clever?

   It's clear that nothing.

   The pathetic attitude of limited people.

4. Fears.

   The fear to get out of its comfort zone, to be among unfamiliar people, to reveal itself and most importantly - the subconscious fear of becoming successful and changing one's life.

To my readers, I recommend at least once to decide and personally to know, what is the training of .

Believe me, the coach will not turn you into a zombie and will not force you to rewrite an apartment.

This is not a sect of any kind, what would the victims of stereotypes not think.
