Here are some of the comments made by
participants on the flirting weekend in Amsterdam 2001. They
were asked what particular features of the weekend will be most useful
to you and how do you intend to put your learnings into action.
They were also asked to sum up the day and say what they gained from
it. Remember most of these people were writing in a second
language! Participants hailed from far and wide including the
Netherlands, England, Wales, Australia, Greece and Belgium.
"Discovering how empowered I feel
by the question "How am I when I am at my best" was
great. I will remember this each day when I need to
give myself a boost. I found the whole workshop very enjooyable
and a very supportive environment for trying new things"
"For me the parts about becoming
aware of yoruself [How are you at your best] your body language
and different energies and those of others, were most useful. I
will try to become more aware of myself and of others as I interact with
them. It was wonderful to meet all these different people
that came here with the same intent, to learn about themselves and
others"
"I had a wonderful time, laughed more than I can remember, and learned a great deal. Aside from the great flirting techniques, I think the workshop was a fantastic way to break down the barriers in connecting and getting to know people, barriers which often stop us from doing so much and getting the most from life, and generally being playful and having fun."

The most useful thing for me was
changing the voice in my head to a sweet and positive one as well as
remembering the question and feeling 'How are you when you are at your
best?"
"Eye contact - so important and
something I will have to practice. Your enthusiasm seems
unstoppable. It encouraged me to focus attention on those areas of
my life that I wish to change. It helped me to clarify my goals
and instilled the belief that in myself is the core of the matter and
everything else should spring from that."
"Most useful to me was learning
what's my best, that I can create the good feeling and the power which
is in it and how to deal with getting compliments - giving is no
problem". People [including myself] grow when they feel good.
"I am giving myself an assignment
to give every day at least 2 compliments - one to myself and one to
someone else. I am going to play around with finding the
particular posture that suits me and gives me a good feeling and explore
how I am when I am at my best. I learnt that first flirting
with yourself and then another person works. I learned to observe
and instead of tthe stupid voice in my head I think "I am as I am
and that's fine"
"Great fun learning, sensing
other people's energys and feelings, accessing your best self and
learning how to connnect naturally"
"I lreally enjoyed getting
compliments and earned much from the idea that I can smile to myself and
give others compliments and think of myself as a strong person. I
aim to just do it and start tomorrow."
"The most useful thing for me was
'how are you when you are at your best and using affirmative feedback to
get others into that state. I liked the trick of giving someone a
compliment and walking away. I gained some tools, alas no magic
want. BUT by battling to use these tools, the victory will be totally
mine"
"I enjoyed it very much and found
Peta to be a very good trainer. You really know how to deal
with all those different people. Loved the eye contact exercise
and intend to do this more often.. also found 'how you are at your best'
most useful"
"Loved the sessions with the eyes
closed when Peta was talking. I know I have this huge amount of
energy inside and will try to let go of it more often. Peta, this is
great, you are doing a great job. Everybody should participate on this
seminar!"
"I have given myself permission
to seize the day and opportunities that are offered without
trying to work out the future in advance. "
"I loved being at your best by
eliminating negative thoughts. Very interesting journey into
human interaction. I had some experiences which would otherwise
have been difficult to achieve"
"I learned a lot about other
people"
"It doesn't cost anything to be
friendly to people and if you know how to flirt with yourself everything
else is easy"
"I loved the how are when you
feel great it was a relaxed nice group and great to do something
motivating for myself"
"Wow! it's amazing how much you
can accomplish with small things such as a simple smile. I loved
connecting to people and have already put it into action by talking to
people on the train"
I love the 'when you are at your
best" concept. It was generally useful to gain insight
of one's weaknesses and gaps........"
"All aspects of the course were
interesting to me. I thoroughly enjoyed it"
" I have learned to tell myself
I'm successful and nice and to focus on my positive skills. I had
such a lot of fun, met nice people and discovered how easy it can be to
make contact and get a good feeling about myself. Thanks for the
experience Peta."
"This is only the start and the
starting point must be 'How am I when I am at my best' I think this is
medium to long term learning"
"It was an intense
experience"
