This got me thinking today as I was reading about a person who was offering some martial arts classes where based on the literature they have years of experience. The fees were pretty high too where at the same time I guess that is normal for people with years of experience. However, there was an odd part to this as every literature I read the person didn\u2019t disclose where exactly he trained from throughout his years. While granted the person could be self-taught it made me wonder do you care more about lineage or years of experiences when it comes to paying someone money to teach you in these cases?<\/p>\n
In these types of service based situation I think it comes down more to whether or not one advertises themselves to have an affiliation of some sort with a group or organization where they use it as a selling point. Because generally speaking for a lot of lifestyle kind of training and services I often find that years of practical experience can in many ways be better than a certification as an example. Again though, if the person uses affiliation as a well to sell something though then that is a different story.<\/p>\n
I usually tend to research a person\u2019s lineage in these kinds of cases for knowledge and awareness. If you are going to be spending your hard earned money in having people teach you a certain skill it\u2019s best to know these kinds of things. Otherwise it is just too easy to fall for the sale based on keywords that a business pushes out there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
