One is the feeling of confindence that yes I can do this.

I was well read and had some practical experience but after spending 
a week at Nader's place learning about cob, super-adobe etc I think a 
valueable part of the experience was that I was able to focus  on my 
building design and ask questions specific to my house. So I you go 
to a work shop and are planning to build your own place try to bring  
you plans with you.

I aggree (and I was fairly skeptical before I went).
I almost  hated to leave.
I may not have time this year but even thought I've been to Nader's 
week long training I wouldn't mind going to the cob group as well 
because I think that there is always something to be learned. During 
the process we all shared our experiences as well.
