Yesterday for the first time in my memory I taught the same workshop in the morning (9-Noon) and in the afternoon (1-4). This typicaly would not be a problem if it was a workshop that involved a process to be taught. (i.e. designing a web page.) The trouble is, it was a class that was mostly discussion and a share a lot of stories of my experiences. I found myself in the afternoon session believing I’d already said something or shares some story. I had, but to the morning group. This completely threw me off. Of course, I have to do the same exact schedule again on Thursday.
