Q How did it go?

A Not as well as I would have liked I didn’t really feel we were connecting somehow. But on the other hand he said he was willing to be kept informed. I think I’d have just liked a bit more enthusiasm on his part. So I was left feeling a bit let down and suddenly my vision seemed an awfully long way away. My confidence seemed to have vanished. I think by the time I got home I was thinking that all I wanted was a quiet life and why did I have to have all these big ideas?

Q So what bits of the meeting did you feel went well?

A Well, he did say that he was interested and I think he really meant it, and we arranged some other events that we were going to do together.

Q If he were here now, how do you think he would say the meeting went?

A I think he’d say that he was interested and would be waiting for some more concrete proposals. I think he would say he was reluctant to commit himself to anything without knowing more about exactly what was required of him.

Q What would it take for you to be able to get his interest more fully?

A He would like to have something definite to commit himself to.

Q What do you think the likelihood is of being able to provide something he can respond favourably to?

A Pretty high, I’d say. Assuming it works out at all, that is.

Q So how are you feeling about the meeting now?

A A lot better in fact. I can see it wasn’t really the disaster I thought it was.

Q OK. So what message do you think your feelings of it being a set-back were having for you?

A Well, I think it was a useful reminder that I am not going to feel on top of the world the whole time. That discouragement is bound to come at times. And I think in spite of all I said beforehand I went into the meeting with too many expectations, and that in itself may have been picked up by him and made him react rather unenthusiastically.

Q OK, what could you do to improve that next time you have a meeting like that?

A Simply to share my vision the best I can. Once I have done that I have done my bit. Other people’s reaction to it is up to them.

Q So you would not be attached to the results of your sharing your vision?

A No, the important thing is that I continue to share it. Talking of which it is time for another issue of my newsletter. And again I’d like to write about what we have been talking about, especially listening to what messages resistance and setbacks give.
