The past two days have been full with Apple Training. 

Yesterday was in Ras Al Khaimah. Actually, thanks to the training, we were able to celebrate our anniversary with a hotel stay and congratulatory cake. πŸ˜€

The training went well and despite the venue being in RAK, which is not as developed or well known as AD or Dubai, it was very smooth and organized. The participants were also good learners, which made me feel relaxed about getting back into the ‘classroom’ after a bit of a break.

Today, the training was back in Abu Dhabi, though a bit out of the city. However, it was a very different experience. The venue was disorganized and not ready for us to set up when we arrived. The participants were more concerned about their attendance status over whether or not they learned anything. It brought me back to the reason why I stopped teaching full-time. The two Western participants were lovely, but I am slowly and sadly becoming a tad bit racist here….

In both sessions the non-Western participants were the most challenging and least interested in being there…, which is just the simple explanation as to why this part of the world is in the state that it is in.

Anyway, after two days of working I am ready to be on holiday! It is a bit pathetic, I know, but it is the sad truth. I have a couple of lessons here and there over the next week, but otherwise I am going to be laying low at home with a bit of focus on meditating on the upcoming year. I need to spend some time on goals for the year, business ventures, etc. So, if I am a little quiet on the writing front here, you know why! πŸ˜‰
