Anyone Out There Experience the est Training That Was Big Self Improvement System in The 1970's?
The people I talked to were all turned on to the training and trying to convince me to sign up. Although curious, I never did, but many baby boomers, thousands actually went through the training.
Now if you had a personal experience with est, how has it affected your life path now? Werner's goal for his subjects going through the training was to "get it" Did you in fact "get it" and have your still "got it?"
60 Minutes did a feature and interview with Erhard, and he apparently has disappeared out of the mainstream. Is he even alive somewhere, out of the US? Donahue had a few shows featuring him and many celebs such as late John Denver and others took the training and discussed the impact it had on their lives.
Anyone care to comment about est?
Answer:
..A comnment? Sure. What participants were supposed to "get" is that the culture is "all BS" and you need to "get in touch with your feelings" and "step outside the box."
From the 21st century, all this sounds pretty lame. Back then, I thought it was pretty lame, definitely not worth the price of admission and going through the BS of est. But to people who were all caught up in pleasing others, this was pretty liberating stuff.
Whatever quacks your duck. I trust Werner invested well and is under the radar spending his wealth well also.
I know the man exerted tremendous influence among a great many people by challenging existing paradigms to create completely new ones! He provided the means for individuals to design and implement new paradigms.
