Sharing our insights with others, and asking them about theirs strengthens our connection to the community.
Start where you are: If your meeting is following the format of a book study, then work with the relevant inquiry questions between meetings.
Phone Survey: Get the contact information for friends. Reach out and ask them about their thoughts or experiences with the first RD Friends Act Inquiry question.
Bookend: talk to admirable friends before you begin and after you finish a difficult task.
Inquiry Circle: Form or join an Inquiry Circle.
Wise Friends and Mentors: Cultivate relationships with admirable friends from meetings. Find friends with enough time and attention to meet regularly to share more deeply about responses to inquiry questions.
