Part of the course preparation for the Touched By A Horse (TBAH) certification program is a temperament test. It uses the Myers-Briggs Kiersey Temperament sorter. Answer 70 questions, learn about yourself! Very cool. I love tests. Then I got have a one-on-one conversation with Melisa, where we discussed the results.
And what I learned about myself is this: If I could present the TBAH materials to my future customers by writing to them (apparently eloquently, I might add), I would be a very happy camper.
Alas, this is not to be. TBAH involves horses. And people. In front of me. With me leading. And it's not that I haven't done that sort of thing before; I know I can. I also know that at the end of a teaching day all I wanted to do was go back to my cave and recharge in it's deep, dark comfort and solitude. And guess what?? That's what my temperament type (INFP) DOES. It's cool. It can be worked with.
Knowing what my tendencies are will help Melisa and my coach know what they need to say and do to reach me. And I'll learn to do the same thing with my future students. I know going through the training will help my confidence level more than I can even imagine at this time.
Should be an expansive experience!
