Books, blogposts, interviews, and “how to” manuals …
Each covers a topic in a particular way. I honestly love them all.
That said, despite the massive amount of information available to practitioners interested in FIT and deliberate practice, certain questions pop up time and again. At some point along the way, I started keeping a list. Some eventually made their way into a book or paper. Others were incorporated into live trainings. A not insignificant number were only addressed in the context of private consultations with agencies and practitioners.
Until now.
Enter “FIT TIPS” — a series of videos aimed answering a specific question. They are brief and to the point, each lasting two minutes or less. You’ll find the first below — a tip I have come to call, “my most frequently given, but ignored advice.”
However, one can simply ask: 1: How has your functioning been since our last session?” and then at the end: 2. “How do you feel about this session?’ My Tx sessions are rarely beyond 5 anyway.

Hi. Of course, program managers will probably ignore this advice, because they are often short-term focused and the whole purpose of implementing FIT is to improve their “averages.” It will skew their data in ways that will make actual improvements impossible to understand, but, hey, at least their averages will come down. Or will they?
i would like to be apart of this process
