Question 1

Who takes Breakthrough Weekend and why?

Accepted Answer

Individuals 13 and over are encouraged to be part of this powerful weekend.  Though the course is geared toward individuals, some people choose to attend with a significant other, family member or co-worker.  Whether attending solo or with others, each student will be regarded as a separate individual with separate needs.

People choose to attend The Weekend for several reasons.  Many have lives that work well and they want to develop new tools with which to approach life and propel it “to the next level.” 
Some may feel as if nothing in life seems to work.  And others may be struggling with just one particular area in life that eludes them; and they are ready to have a breakthrough in that area.

Question 2

My friend invited me to do Breakthrough Weekend, but I think my life is fine the way it is.  Why should I do The Weekend?

Accepted Answer

The weekend is not about being broken and getting fixed.  The weekend is about jumping in where you are and creating an even BETTER life!

Question 3

I’m a very private person. Is it necessary to grow and learn with a group of people I don’t know?

Accepted Answer

This is a very common concern for people. We understand the tendency to feel anxious about learning with a room of strangers.  Breakthrough Weekend is designed as a group experience to help individuals find a place of significance and belonging.Our ability to cooperate and contribute is vital to our success in life.

Question 4

I might not admit this to anyone, but I am afraid of the idea of doing Breakthrough Weekend.

Accepted Answer

Taking Breakthrough may feel risky to you.  Not many people are comfortable sharing with a group of strangers.  But the risk is well worth it because the benefits may be just the inspiration you need.

Question 5

Is Breakthrough Weekend affiliated with some religion?

Accepted Answer

No.  All persons of any or no religious belief are welcome.  In fact, we have instructed students of almost every religious or non-religious persuasion.  Breakthrough is a workshop focused on helping you develop skills to assist you on your path, whatever your beliefs may be.

Question 6

What theory is The Weekend based on?

Accepted Answer

Breakthrough Weekend is based on the work of Alfred Adler. Alder, a renowned psychologist and physician, founded the School of Individual Psychology.

He had a life time fascination about what great force underlies our motivation, propelling 
us forward through trying circumstances. He considered this motivating force the desire 
we all have to fulfill our potential.

Adler believed that early life experiences generate assumptions that influence what we do 
and feel in the present.  Breakthrough Weekend seeks to reframe those assumptions that 
block success. Attendees thereby become more effective at reaching their desired  
goals…allowing them to thrive.

Question 7

After The Weekend, then what?

Accepted Answer

There are many opportunities to stay connected and refine the skills you learn during your initial weekend.
 
Attend the Follow-Up.  A follow-up meeting will be scheduled approximately two weeks after your Weekend.  We call it the Follow Up.  This discussion session offers you the opportunity to review your progress, fine-tune lessons learned, get answers to questions, and reconnect with other attendees.

Be an Assistant.  All Breakthrough graduates are encouraged to return as an Assistant during future Breakthrough Weekends.  Assisting is an effective way to continue to grow and reinforce the tools you gained during your initial Weekend.

Stay connected.  Many students create and maintain strong, supportive friendships with the Breakthrough community and choose to stay in contact by phone, email, Facebook Group, and in-person.

Attend events:  1-Day Workshops.  The Community Potluck.  The Women’s Group.
