From Coach to Awakener | Self Help in You


Coaching is the process of helping people and teams to perform at the peak of their abillities. It involves drawing out people?s strengths, helping them to bypass personal barriers and limits in order to achieve their personal bests, and facilitating them to function more effectively as members of a team.
Historically, coaching has been focused toward achieving improvement with respect to a specific behavioral performance. This involves promoting the development of that person?s behavioral competence through careful observation and feedback.
In recent years, the notion of coaching has taken on a more generalized and expanded meaning. Personal coaching, executive coaching and life coaching provide support on a number of different levels: behaviors, capabilities, beliefs, values, identity and even spirtual. These new and more comprehensive forms of coaching-executive coaching and life coaching-can be referred to as capital-C- Coaching. Large C Coaching involves helping people effectively achieve out comes on a range of levels. We guide people to learn about new environments, for instance; coach them to improve specific behavioral competencies; teach them new cognitive capabilities; mentor empowering eliefs and values; sponsor growth at the identity level; and awaken people?s awareness of the larger system or field.
This book defines the types of contexts and situations which require the capital C Coach to focus on one of these roles ? caretaker, guide, coach, teacher, mentor, sponsor, awakener ? and provides a specific toolbox for each role. In other words, it provides a comprehensive tool set to be used by an effective coach to manage the entire scope of large C Coaching activities- from caretaking to awakening.

ANDY JACKSON

Taranaki Daily News reporter Glen McLean hits the rails for an adventure.

tdn whanga stand

ANDY JACKSON

One of the 20 tunnels between Whangamamona and Okahukura.

Clickety clack

Out on the rails

The weathered tables outside the Whangamomona Hotel were getting their daily wipedown. A hunched local collected his morning paper from the village's mailbox. Everything looked normal.

Across the road, the garage was the busiest spot as a handful of visitors waited for the arrival of our guide from Forgotten World Adventures.

We'd been told to be at the railway crossing "around" 9.30am but only one in the group is miffed the big hand has moved past six.

The silence is suddenly broken by what locals describe as a convoy - two utes and two motorbikes arrive in a cloud of dust.

With his genuine greeting completed, Forgotten World Adventures operations manager Van Watson snaps to it as he drives the first of the converted golf cart rail cars out of their storage shed and on to the line.

"Tea's up," shouts Maree Matena, our guide for the next six hours, before she lets me in on the news I've been waiting to hear.

"The toilet's just behind those bushes over there," she says, pointing to the pine box hidden away under the tree.

After scribbling our way through the disclaimer, photographer Andy Jackson and I are given a light but serious rundown by Watson on the business of safety. One message really sinks in.

"Maree will be in the lead cart and the idea is to keep her in sight, because she has the lunch," he says, as he starts a quick demo on how to use the carts.

Put simply - you jump in, put a seatbelt on, put it into gear, turn the key and push down on the accelerator.

The whirr of the cart's petrol- driven engine is as relaxing as its top speed - 20kmh.

While that might seem timid, the sight of Matena loading up a chainsaw, a pick axe and a spade onto the back of her four-seater cart does raise a few eyebrows.

"It's just in case I need to clear anything off the track," she says, as we are encouraged to get a wriggle on.

We're on the 20-tunnel tour from Whangamomona to Okahukura and the republic is soon in the distance as we clickety-clack our way northeast.

It's not long before we are forced to slow as the cart in front encounters a couple of rogue sheep which seem intent on a bit of exercise down the trunk line. They eventually scuttle off to find a gap in the fence.

Matena suddenly sticks her arm out in that universal gesture designed to get you to stop. We're past Kohuratahi, about to travel through our first tunnel and it's time for a bit of education.

She points out the date stamp, as she calls it, above the tunnel, which signifies when its construction was completed. She tells her crew it is cold within the darkness "but there is nothing to worry about - no lurking possums or massive spiders likely to drop down at the first sign of life".

She was right on all counts as we moved through the bowels of the 488-metre tunnel, which we soon find out is just a pup along this line.

While the rolling hills and steep gorges provide their own pleasure on the trip, it's the work that went on by many pioneering railway workers that really churns the grey matter.

Just how these men slogged their way through so many hillsides, built bridges over some of the most treacherous terrain in the country and managed to stay alive is beyond comprehension.

As Matena shows us, through a limited collection of photographs, the long-forgotten places we pass through - the likes of Kohuratahi, Tahora, Heao, Tokirima and Mangaparo - were all bustling little settlements as the hundreds of railway men worked their way up the line.

There is little evidence left - just the odd concrete platform here, a railway spike there.

As our thoughts continue to wander like the sheep around us, we pull alongside an old wooden shed for lunch on the platform at Tokirima, where we are met by Forgotten World Adventures founder Ian Balme, whose smile is as warm as the January sun.

He is rightfully proud of his venture, which is drawing customers from around the country on a daily basis. For him, the painfully slow process of beating the bureaucrats to gain fulltime access to the line, finding the right carts from the United States to convert on to the track and gathering the right team of staff around him has already been worth it.

"We've taken more than 1000 people over here since the middle of October," he says. "We've basically been fully booked since Boxing Day, so we can't believe it. We seemed to have hit a niche tourism market."

Balme acknowledges the trip is not for everyone, but it's not meant to be.

"We always aimed for the 45-plus demographic but we've found there is no upper limit, really. You are sort of adventurous but you're safe, and we've had a couple of 92-year-old ladies who came through the other day and they just loved it."

Getting a handle on just a few chapters of the area's history has been a challenge for Balme and his workers.

"We're getting told a different story just about every day," he says. "The amazing thing is, all these places were really big communities in their day. Now there is nothing, but the descendants of those people are right around New Zealand. We get people through just about every day with some sort of connection."

While the ongoing maintenance of the line continues to be an issue, Balme has more plans up his sleeve to expand the business, including introducing a rail-bike option down the line.

Lunch over, we leave the boss to do the dishes and head further north, eventually stopping at Ohura, where the Daily News team disembarks to be shuttled back to Whangamomona, where the pace hasn't changed since we left.

I'm curious as to how many males find that they prefer being the submissive one in sexual relations.

And to the women, how do you generally feel about sexually submissive partners as opposed to dominant partners?

Curious, as I enjoy being dominated.? :badslave:

Just depends on the girl and my mood at the time - sexual aggression isn't always so calculated.

Hmm... neat feedback. Maybe it's just my insecurity.

This girl I'm seeing also prefers being submissive. So there is an awkward period during foreplay which it seems that one of us is waiting to dominate the other.

Fuck it, I'll dominate.

There is no reason to rush foreplay or sex. Dominate her, let her dominate you, switch around.
Use some fuckin' team work on that domination.

i've found that when the chemistry is right, switching comes really easy for a lot of people. but i say that as someone who enjoys playing both roles. one of my best fairly recent sexual arrangements was with someone who was a total sub. we were so great together that she discovered that she loved to top me, to the point of that's what we did most of the time. it was super hot. too bad she was emotionally unstable. i really would've loved to have kept her around for something real. /sigh

I lost my virginity to a very aggressive girl, so I guess I've kinda been chasing that high.

My fiancee likes me to be borderline violent with her, and I enjoy it too, but it's a new thing for me. I'm not used to being so rough.

It really just depends, though, I am not sure which one I like more. They're very unique acts. I've been forced to lick my ex GF's boots (nude) while she verbally humiliated me and hit me, and it was amazing.

Then when I have sex with my fiancee she wants me to put one hand on her throat and hold her arms above her head.

I will admit while most girls prefer something much more vanilla, most of them want a dominant man. That means that it's most convenient if you enjoy both, but I totally get you on being submissive. Even my super sub fiancee, I'll throw her on top of me and kinda force her to take the lead sometimes. It's difficult to find a girl that wants to take control like that.
