four tips on how to choose a course topic

 Four tips for choosing a one that is authentic to your personality

Find out what gets you feel the most enthusiastic about your work.  
  It is self-discovery that has you feel the most enthusiastic in your current job? Perhaps you've just discovered that you feel strongly connected to the world around you? Incorporate that into your subject of study. Your positivity can make other students feel good also.

What did you master lately?  
  Be focused on your latest aha moments or your newly acquired abilities, and the discoveries you've made. Don't worry now about basic theories, details, and fundamentals if you're not excited about them now, even if you're not alone in their class.

Ask yourself what you can bring to the table that's unique to you.  
  You should be able to let go of the things you believe people want from you. There are so many influences who tell you to take this action, and you must follow through with that. What you need to do is to listen to your natural voice, connect to your natural energy source. You must find it. You can find it by observing your own stillness.

Reconnect with your basic motivation, why would you like to instruct initially.  
  Is it the connection with other people that drives you most? Is it helping to give back to your artistic community? Let that feeling guide you in choosing your class topic. Building a vibrant and connected community around the online classes you offer will help improve the lives of others.

Bonus tip: Don't teach topics below your level of proficiency.  
  Learning skills you're not excited about is dull. If you're a novice teacher it's fantastic to teach basic concepts, but if you are an experienced teacher , you shouldn't select the easy areas to teach, even if they "sell well". Choose something stimulating and intellectually demanding in the present moment. You can add the basics later, but don't make it your primary goal.

If you're trying to be somebody else, you won't be satisfied with the results you get. You're not who you are. But when you find your voice, you feel a reassurance to it. You fall into it as it feels like the home that you've always dreamed of.

Choosing a course topic is 80% of your teaching success

 Selecting a subject for your class is the 80% of teaching success

Beginning isn't easy. It is easy to delay. The fridge is a place to go to open it, take the look and then come to the fridge without food (or a snack) and looking through IG 10 times before starting the next task. That's normal.

It helps to divide tasks into smaller chunks starting with something that is easy. Choosing a topic helps to begin and finish with a concrete and satisfying objective. After this, all other pieces will come together much easier.
