From the CIP Learning Inquiry, in participants' own words...
+ I have done very little responding directly to other people. I have not been doing with others what I want for myself. So I am changing that pattern and starting to reach out and share more of myself. I am being more deliberate about letting others know at least some of my reactions to what I am hearing from them. + I have experienced, and have felt myself overcoming, feelings of intimidation. + I benefitted from pushing through my resistance that manifest in reading and not participating and inputting. Holding the expectation that what I'm writing is part of a learning process and not a finished product is useful. + I've learned how to get around being overwhelmed by using people I have conversed with in one domain to get started in another. + If someone is in the group who knows no one else (LIKE ME!), have a buddy system. In fact, I am going to ask for one in the Mutual Support section. Had we had Mutual Support at the beginning, I probably would have asked for this earlier! + I am learning about creating the space for reflection before speaking. + It gets ME to Slow Down... and think about problems from a communication standpoint.
