					<description><![CDATA[Yes, Bob.  I did. I felt differently also.  Instead of seeing this person as just a jerk, I could see that they are really insecure and fearful.  I will be gently sharing some information for a life coach for one person.  Once I gave this person a chance I could immediately recognize a shift in their demeanor.  This same person and I will be meeting soon and in the words of Steve Covey, &quot;I am seeking first to understand and then be understood.&quot;  
Thank you.
Be Blessed.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yes, I engaged with one person in particular.
I really went for it; she was a complete stranger, which may not be the best choice, since I am male. There are societal aspects of this kind of encounter. 

But what a learning experience; what I learned about me, and as a consequence, about her. As she revealed certain characteristics about who she was, wow, I judged her immediately and not in a favorable light! Been doing that my whole life, truth be told.

But here is why I say this program is the single best personal development course I&#039;ve ever taken. What a great learning experience, recalling when Bob intimated that anyone can just ignore differences they have with other people, rather than judge them or let those differences be a friendship breaker. That&#039;s some of the best advice I&#039;ve ever gotten.

In this &quot;getting encounter&quot; with this woman, I learned that I automatically go to judgment, in a negative way, because some people -- probably most people! -- think differently than I do. That&#039;s what I did with this poor woman. My judgment didn&#039;t do her any good; and it didn&#039;t do me any good. What good was it? None whatsoever.

I was able to correct my judgmental thinking, and as Bob suggests, just ignore the differences. Who cares? Which is what I did.
What a liberating experience.

And you know what?
I liked this woman more as a result. Whereas before, I would have (very negatively) written her off as a loser, or a weirdo or whatever, because she thought quite differently from me.  And if I like her more, chances are she&#039;ll like me more — that&#039;s what this program is all about.

One more wow: when I ignored all I saw in her that I judged as negative, all I could see was the good in her. What a wonderful wow. That&#039;s the only way to see anyone, without a doubt.

Thank you for a fantastic program, a life changer.]]></description>
