Are you signed up to go to a workshop, training, conference, or networking meeting soon? Have you attended these in the past and come home overwhelmed, excited, full of ideas, and changes you were going to make only to find out that in two days it was business as usual and the glow was gone?

Well, here are a few tips to make sure that you get the best value for the precious time and money you are investing in yourself.

Antes del evento...

First of all, come with an attitude of gratitude and be appreciative of the gifts you are about to receive, dar gracias a Dios for this opportunity you have been given to receive whatever is in store for you. Come with an attitude that you will learn something great for you, your business, or your community. Be open to new ideas and keep an open mind. And, most importantly, sonriete, and SMILE big.

Look over the workshop materials and become aware of the topic and the presenter. Do a web search, read blogs, and get immersed in the experience before you even go, this will help prepare your mind for the information that is coming. It is like preparing the ground for a garden before you even plant the seeds.

Think about what you would like to learn. This is the most important thing you can do before the workshop begins. Think about (and write down) what you would like to learn from the session. Then take your answers to the training with you, reviewing them before the workshop begins (the trainer may ask for some info like this, and if they do, you are already prepared no last minute pressure!) Ask yourself questions like:
  • What would make this worth my time? 
  • What is my fondest wish for this training?
  • What do I expect from this training?
  • What is the best possible outcome that could arise from this training?
  • What is the biggest question I'd like answered?
Stay tuned for tips of what to do while you are there and what to do after the event.
