Don’t make this mistake

7-second video: Never again confuse the two. Note: Everyone makes this mistake.

Training and development is talked about the same way creativity and innovation is talked about.

What?

How?

The two-part formula (1. training & 2. development) (1. creativity & 2. innovation) is continuously referenced as a single formula.

Training and development are two entirely different things.

One is full of structure and process designed to produce compliance to the highest professional standards.

One is full of relationships and understanding designed to produce unwavering commitment.

Compliance and commitment are light years apart.

Are you compliant or committed to your physical vibrancy?

There is nothing noble about being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.

Train for ‘how to’ and develop for ‘have to’

What’s the difference between a lifetime of personal vibrancy and a lifetime without vibrancy?

Development.

Parents train (instruct) their kids how to do things, like brushing and flossing their teeth.

But few parents develop their kids to understand why you have to brush and floss for a lifetime.

When was the last time you flossed? You. Yes you. When?

Ok, when was the last time you flossed daily for an entire year?

Now can you hear me?

Training (aka teaching) is not the same as development (coaching).

  • Training is tangible.
  • Development is intangible.

Training only tells me what to do each day.

Development is what convinces me to actually find the commitment to do it every single day.

When was the last time you developed yourself?

When was the last time you developed yourself?

Remind me again how i know if i developed myself?

  • You did something you’ve never done before.
  • You were entirely out of your comfort zone.
  • You made and pursued a lofty goal, and in succeeding or failing, you grew.
  • You had a surprising, delightful epiphany about your abilities.
  • You make being out of your comfort zone your new comfort zone.

Got it?

PS. You didn’t read a manual, you didn’t attend a class, and you didn’t follow your normal routine.
