Did you know you can take something out from a workshop or course in a fraction of the time? Many excellent trainers apply accelerated learning into their programs and both organisers and participants are amazed by the results!

Accelerated learning, as the name implies, means faster learning and comprehension in addition to long term results.

As you grow, you have experienced accelerated learning along the way. It’s the time when you manage to understand and grasp the concepts, principles and applications as soon as you read it – and still remember it.

Children constantly enter and exit accelerated learning states. When in this mental state, children will remember what they learn and will most probably apply it.

Ironically, instead of learning to use accelerated learning, our education system systematically casts it further away from us by recognising one form of learning instead of a holistic approach. Instead of being allowed to explore, be curious and imagine, we were taught to sit down, be quiet and pay attention. Sure it works for some, but not for others. But to explain this phenomenon, those who cannot learn in that ‘intellectual’ manner are given many labels which results in attacks to their self-esteem.

How does accelerated learning benefit you or your organisation?

Consider these:

• Learning at a fraction of the usual time;
• Active participation and holistic comprehension of the subject matter;
• Long term retention of the information or knowledge;
• Shorter learning curve;
• And many more underlying possibilities!

But that’s not all!

Excellent neurolinguistic programmers and coaches can help you enter and apply accelerated learning by recognising your learning style, work with you in getting yourself grounded so you don’t get overblown by excitement when using accelerated learning! If needed, your neurolinguistic programmer is more than happy to teach you the application techniques so you can enjoy your learning and use it longer!

Imagine the satisfactory results as you apply accelerated learning endlessly and enjoy the support of a neurolinguistic programmer. The possibilities are endless!

Without further ado, I am proud to share with you the logos for Aldric Tinker (the Business), CreateChange and Create Copy.

Inspired by the soaring phoenix, Mohd. Izwan Ismail designed this logo especially for the use of Aldric Tinker, present and future divisions as well as incorporation of the business at a later stage.

Growing up and going through life is like a journey. A journey you begin from the day you were conceived. A journey which will only end for you the moment you release that last breath. Like any other journey you make, your life’s journey is not spared from the usual weathers: rain, shine, hail, snow, windy and more. Yet as much as you enjoy the journey, you are bound to enter periods of down time; thunderstorms that just suck the mood out, leaving you disappointed and maybe miserable.

The feeling mixed or on its own, is natural. At a funeral, it’s normal to grieve. Even if you’re not crying your eyes out, it’s still alright. It’s natural for you. It’s how your mind has programmed you to cope with the loss. Similarly when your parents are divorcing or when you failed that paper you put your effort in during your undergraduate years.

In some cases, you may even feel like giving up. What can you do?

Before you decide to give up, even though you feel that the world’s against you, think of the time when you were learning to walk. You can also see yourself through the eyes of a baby, trying to stand and take his or her first step. Sure, you cried when you first fell. But see yourself, determined and optimistic, trying to stand up and walk. Can you feel the determination you, the baby, felt? Your focused tunnel vision, concentrated and optimistic on the thing that you wanted to take. Listen to your shrill of excitement as you take that baby step. Although you clumsily fall down, you are still determined and excited.

After several attempts and falls, see yourself, the baby, successfully taking that first step! All his/her optimism and determination paid off! See how excited you are, the glimmer in your eyes. Listen to the accomplishment resonating in your happy cry! Feel that rush of joy crawling and seeping into your body – from your feet, to your ankles, into your calves and then your thighs. See that sensation spreading from your legs all the way up into your body. How, with every breath, the joy, hope and optimism fill your stomach muscles, your chest and your arms. As the euphoria reaches your neck and head, you can’t help but to notice the vibe coming from the baby’s body – your body.

You, the baby, flash that smile and clap your hand. You’re all revved up and excited to push forward and live another day. You are alive!

You keep the beautiful memories of the journey radiant and harmonically loud!

Here you are, today, standing on the road – your journey. Before you maybe crossroads, to roads diverged in an amber wood, straight or winding, you conclude that what’s important is that you push forth and forward. Sharing the strong and comforting glow, vibe and harmony coming from inside you with those you may meet.

Even if there’s a thunderstorm when you’re on the road, after a short while, look up. See the silver lining behind the cloud. Feel the cool earth under your feel as you smell the freshness of the air – under the bright rainbow arcing over you.

Every time you find yourself on the road from a fall, remember how it was when you took that first baby step. You’d feel better and optimistic before you know it.
