Agreed. Especially when working on it together. Also, way less sweaty. Comforting to know you're also running these (types of) Gyms and keeping the fire going.
Great piece, Rik! In fact, I just sent it to a potential student who had questions about what the community will be after the cohort ends.
It will be this. Students creating valuable spaces for people to talk about ideas and get feedback. As sad as I am that Write of Passage is ending, I'm excited to see what bubbles up in its wake.
I've said it privately and I'll say it publicly here also: thank you for all your contributions to Write of Passage. You've made a large and lasting impact on both the cohort experience and students. It's been great working with you.
That's awesome Matt. Hope they join this final cohort and become part of this amazing community. I'm sure it will continue to be vibrant and strong. And, right back at you, it's been great working with you. See you soon for a last run :)
…writing, idea, sparring and feedback gyms > any gym with weights and bikes…it is amazing what your mind becomes when you work on it…

Wonderful advice! I, too, am a WoP alum. At first, the Gyms were scary to me. Then, I craved them.
I never realized how the same tools could transform personal relationships, but now I see how that's a natural connection. Thank you!
Ha! That's a familiar pattern regarding the Gyms. Getting over the threshold is hard, and when you're there, you don't wanna leave anymore ;)
