Education. Consultatiion. Mentoring. Support.

Welcome to BACK2MYROOTS B2MR regular postings of fresh new topic's

Education. Mentoring. Support.
These tools are all available to us but in so many cases we don't access them. Why is this?Are we really that perfect or is it that we don't want to expose our weaknesses? 
Our worst enemy is our self. Admitting that help is needed. Raising a hand saying I don't know! How do we protect our selves from exposing our weaknesses. Ego and Fear are our worst enemy we must put them aside seek out help, skill training, Education.
So many program's and tools are available to us. Not free but not expensive it's investing in one's self it will give you the edge! Those tools and skills you need for success.
What form does this help assistance come in? Well hands on teaching, sharing, techniques and skills.

Support can come in the form of personal help from qualified skilled consultants and educators both key to spending time with listening to and learning from building up a relationship with.
Then there is the written Books, Education material. Be it new product information, maybe a new colour chart with an education section often not read and studied by stylists. They use the excuse! oh I'm hands on i like to use and feel the product! Back to those faithful friends fear and Ego.

A mentor someone with an open mind with many years of experience who can share vision with you listen to you guide and advise help you to reach your goals. This can and will only work with an open mind honesty and willingness to listen do the work!
Oh yes I forgot to mention none of this works unless you are committed to the tasking. Parting with some hard earned cash this show commitment. Being prepared to listen, take up the challenges. Do the work reap the rewards.
None of this is an instant fix. it a journey and an adventure built on honesty and trust the skill the experience that can be gained can be beyond your wildest dreams .
The doors that can open. The opportunities that can arise. The direction your career can take are immense.
The hairdressing Industry. Our chosen profession has so many career paths to choose from as a start sit down list how many different avenues could be open to you .
Such as:
Salon stylist.
Colour technician specialist in colour correction.
Educator for a colour company.
Stage work artistic team.
Photographic work.
Cruise liner work.

Consultant.
How much of a list can you write? Think about what your goals are?
Now consider this with all the different mediums available to us Phone, Skype, Video, Internet.
Help and advise it at your finger tips all you have to do is ask. Support is at hand weekly monthly updates, communication.
Over the coming weeks it is my hope to be able to offer access to these types of tools, support, consultation,and mentoring assistance.
All these are things that you can sign up for and get involved with. It has been my goal since I started this online work posting topic's writing blogs. To be able to offer support provide the tools to inspire and raise the professional bar standards and image of our industry and profession.
