How I stop
escaping my own life
and transform it by Landmark’s Education
It was the time of many
transitions and changes in my life just before I did
the Landmark Forum. I was in the process of moving
out of Manila – I'd gotten sick and tired of the
traffic, politics, my profession, and even my
family. I was going to remove myself from all the
“jerks” in my life too. I'd already actually taken a
teaching job far away from the city and was ready to
change my life – to make it more, better, and
different.
Fortunately, in the midst of all that, I did the
Landmark Forum ... and it totally blew me away. It
was like a nuclear bomb leveling everything that I
was complaining about to nothing. Instead of
superficial changes in the circumstances I was
treated to a true transformation of my life!
The people I'd cut off and given up on were suddenly
appearing like new people that are quite decent and
even great. All those years of making others wrong
just got wiped out from me. Most importantly, I got
my family back and the quality of my life – and,
wonderfully enough, theirs – has never been the
same. It was so impactful that my dad and sister
also signed up for their own respective Landmark
Forums!
But my favorite breakthrough was getting my own
country back. I'd gotten so resigned and cynical
about the Philippines. I lived through major
attempts at changing how things were here and saw
that it did not work. I had totally given my country
up as “hopeless.” And I couldn't make a difference!
In the Landmark Forum, I got to choose my country
for everything it is and for everything it is not.
That choice allows me to create what is possible for
the Philippines, and, in the Advanced Course, we
created the possibility of a country that works!
Everything else I'm up to in life is inside of this
new possibility and it deeply touched me.
Once the life of complaints and resigning to doing
nothing was firmly left in the past, I stepped into
the world of Landmark Education Assisting Program. I
assist inside of the future I created in the
Advanced Course: a first-world Philippines that
works. The value I've gotten from the Assisting
Program is tremendous.
Just like any Landmark Courses, anything I want for
myself and my life is available in my participation
in the Assisting Program. As one of the Landmark
Introduction Leaders in Manila, I've gotten major
breakthroughs in many areas of my life: my
profession and businesses, finances, relationships,
even my travels.
Unique from other Landmark Education courses, as one
of the people who assist I have the awesome
privilege to contribute - and I love to be partners
with the Landmark community in the Philippines. We
are indeed ordinary people with extraordinary
commitment, and I am so happy that I did the
Landmark Forum instead of running away from life.
