I recently had a Skype session with James Bach. One of the topics we discussed was around guru’s. I said to James that I tell my classes that I am not a guru, I’m the dude at the front.
James said …
[22/06/2010 2:20:51 p.m.] James Bach: I have a name for that
[22/06/2010 2:20:58 p.m.] Brian Osman: whats that?
[22/06/2010 2:21:43 p.m.] James Bach: I say I’m a “student of the craft” and I want to connect with other students. I may be a more advanced student in some ways, and sure, I have a lot of opinions, but I’m still a student. That’s the attitude.
[22/06/2010 2:22:47 p.m.] Brian Osman: I like that – actually i remember you asking Lee Copeland something similar at STANZs last year. Do you mind if I share that title also?
[22/06/2010 2:23:10 p.m.] James Bach: no problem
So its *official* – I am a student of the craft – constantly learning in some way.
