After many discussions at the last campus session it seemed that the majority of us in module one felt like we were missing something. A vital piece of information that would make everything clear and simple. However, what, in fact, was missing, was the content that is individually relevant to us.
From my own personal experience of spending the last fourteen years of my life in full-time education and having everything spoon fed to me, and even more so, the last three years being trained in a way of “it must be done like this and you will do this to get this”, so to speak, makes this new process of internal learning is quite a daunting prospect because, like the others, I want to be told what to do.
I think it was a good opportunity to be able to talk this through together and learn that we were not alone and in fact, everyone was feeling the same. To quote Alan Durrant, “You won't learn anything worthwhile if you are not in a confused state”. I completely agree with this because otherwise, you would already know everything and there wouldn't be a point in doing this course and with what we learn over the next 15 months, we can then carry with us in our future careers. So we all need to embrace the confusion to develop our own practice in order to succeed throughout the rest of the course and our future!
