Calling All Groupies: Here’s Your Chance to Participate

If you want to participate in our Callings group, comment below if you would like to participate as the focal person or a group member.

This is the first time I’m attempting this, but I’m excited about the possibilities.

There are a few of you who have already commented. Mrs. Kristin Offiler on Facebook and Miss Amber.

So here’s how it will go. I think we’ll try it here first.

1. First, we choose the focal person (the person who would like to have a question answered on their calling-questions like, “Should I quit my day job and pursue my calling?”).
2. Then, the focal person will leave a comment with their question below.
3. After we have read the question carefully and with an open heart, we will each reply to the focal person with another question.
4. Make sure this question is not judgmental and that it is not attempting to play devil advocate in anyway (e.g. trying to sway a person’s view through questioning). But just allow anything that comes up. Ask questions that spark curiosity. Ask questions that inspire your inner child. No advice or commenting allowed.
5. The focal person would answer these questions as they come.
6. We could do this at least in one round or two depending on how the focal person feels. It should only take a handful of minutes. In person, it took us about 30 min.

Here is an example of what I mean:

Focal person: Should I quit my day job and pursue my dream to be a writer?

Group member A: What would it feel like to be a writer?

Focal person: It would be fun, inspiring, nice, etc.

Group member B: What is your greatest fear about quitting your day job?

Focal person: Not making enough $, etc.

What do you think?

Are you interested?

The event will take place here next Tuesday, April 26th at 2pm PT.
