Reality Coach News

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 12:43:25 +0100

We are pleased to announce that we have figured out a way to combine the three main feeds from the Reality Coach site into one BIG Feed. Previously, if you wanted to keep up with Reality Coach blog entries, Reality Coach News --even upcoming teleclasses, you had to subscribe to one blog. Then if you wanted audios from the Reality Coach Teleclass, that was another feed. And if you wanted to monitor comments to the Reality Coach blog entries -- well, that was another feed. Thanks to http://feedblendr.com/ (http://feedblendr.com/) these have been combined into one BIG Reality Coach Feed. In this you get: Reality Coach blog entries, Reality Coach News, audios from the Reality Coach Teleclass plus comments to Reality Coach blog entries! (This feed is still in the testing stages -- but we plan to replace the current Feedblitz (Feedblitz) list with this one once we make sure the kinks are worked out.) Get the BIG Reality Coach News Feed today at http://BIGFeed.RealityCoaching.info (http://BIGFeed.RealityCoaching.info) (or http://feeds.feedburner.com/RealityCoachNews (http://feeds.feedburner.com/RealityCoachNews)).

How to write a Blog Entry

Thu, 06 Dec 2007 14:10:48 +0100

Blogging is an important component of the Reality Coach credentialing process. It verifies that you know what you know. Not only should you be posting blog entries -- but you should be commenting on blog entries posted others in our community. (That's what the symbols are for are below each blog entry). So, how do you post a blog? Log-in From the USER menu, select WRITE A BLOG ENTRY (please not only registered participants have access to this component) Enter the Title. Note that the title should be the name of the book and the chapter if you are making a post for that aspect of the Reality Coach® Credential Enter your Blog entry Make sure that it is published and that everyone can see it Click on SAVE BLOG ENTRY Your blog entry has now been saved and should appear under REALITY COACH BLOG accessible from the MAIN MENU YOU ARE NOT DONE YET! When you submit a blog entry your entry is posted into something called the main body so people coming to the site will not be able to read your entry on the front page of the Reality Coaching Blog. They will only see the title. You need to fix this. Its quick and easy: Select REALITY COACH BLOG from the MAIN MENU Find your post Next to the title of your article is a pen and paper icon / graphic. CLICK ON THE ICON TO EDIT your post. A page will load and you will see two windows: Intro (with nothing in it) and Main (with the complete entry you entered) Select a paragraph or two from your entry and cut it out of MAIN and paste it into INTRO You now have a teaser intro for your article that will appear on the front page of the REALITY COACH BLOG SAVE Congratulations! You have just published a Reality Coach Blog entry!

Here's a retort for this classic line.... How did he do that? Voodoo? Magic wand? or fairy dust?

Reality Coach® Teleclass now online

Fri, 26 Oct 2007 10:59:20 +0100

The weekly teleclass component of the Reality Coach credential is now recorded and available online at http://podcast.RealityCoaching.info (http://podcast.realitycoaching.info/) or http://teleclass.RealityCoaching.info (http://teleclass.realitycoaching.info/). It is also streamed in directly at the main Reality Coaching site (in the Feeds area). So you now never have to worry about missing a call.Reality Coaching -- an approach to business coaching / life coaching using an established model -- has this entire learning website avaiable for coaches who want to move beyond a constellation of disperate techniques or gut feelings to a model for growth and change used by thousands of change agents -- counselors, social workers, personal coaches, marriage and family therapists -- world wide.You can participate in any number of ways -- from online blogging as you read texts to publishing papers that show the power of Reality Coaching -- to the weekly teleclass -- to live role plays via conference calls. You keep track of your own progress and success via your own personal website / e-portfolio that is assigned and created for you at http://RealityCoaching.info (registered participants only). One final note, listening to a recording of a Reality Coaching teleclass does not count as meeting one of the requirements toward the Reality Coach Credential (which is participating in the teleclass).

Teleclass times/missed classes

Wed, 17 Oct 2007 14:09:29 +0100

What time zone is the 7pm teleclass time? Also, if we miss classes, will there be a way to make them up later on, or will they be recorded so we can access them through the website?

Procedures That Lead to Change

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 21:30:39 +0100

What are these procedures that lead to change that keep getting referenced on this site?There are four key questions that compose part of these procedures:What do you want?What are you doing to get what you want?Is it working?If not, what else could you do?In addition to these four questions, the environment / relationship and the ability to help a person create a viable plan (to help them get what they want) complete the procedures that lead to change.
