Share your plans and ideas


Consider the interaction from an independent view e.g. fly on the wall. What do you observe? What insight does this give you to take back to self?

Look at the situation from your viewpoint. What do you see, hear, feel? What thoughts do you have? What needs are you trying to meet?

Look at the situation as if you were the other person. What do you see, hear, feel? What thoughts do you have? What needs are you trying to meet?
