Jack Canfield: The Success Principles
Shawne Duperon: This is your Train the Trainer program, yes?
Jack Canfield: Yes we have videotaped a year of training. Then we edited that down to about a 35 hour home study program where people actually see me training people. Every exercise, they see me doing it. There is an order and a sequence to this. They have an outline for a half day workshop, a one day workshop and a two day workshop. They take an online test and then they go and videotape themselves actually doing a training for at least half a day. We watch that here and we certify people.
Because, for instance, I spoke in Iran last year, and people from Iran cannot get visas to come to the United States. People in Somalia and South Sudan can’t afford it, just airfare, the hotel, the tuition fees, etc. This costs about 1/6 of what it would cost to come and get a live training here, so we are real excited about that. It is a very sophisticated program that’s required to have all of that in there. So I am excited. That’s really what we are about, and that’s the main focus of my work right now, that plus speaking.
Shawne: To find out more about Train the Trainer, head to JackCanfield.com
Jack Canfield: Yes. And one more thing, I am also writing a book. I just finished a book called the 30 Day Sobriety Solution, how to get sober or cut back drinking in the privacy of your home. Because we have found that most rehabs get a 15 to 20% success rate if you go back over and over. AA, from the research we have read, gives about a 20% success rate. A lot of people won’t go to AA because they don’t want the public image that they have a problem. If you go to AA in the military, it goes on your record. If you go to rehab, it goes on your record. I met a guy who was taking my success principles and applying them to sobriety. He created his online course called 30 day Sobriety Solutions. So I found out about it and met with him. He took one of my seminars. We became friends. He took my Train the Trainer program, and then I said we have got to get this into a book because not enough people can do the online coaching. So we sold the book to Atrio for a million dollar advance last April, and the book comes out this August.
