Your Responses to Today's Event

Thanks again for a great time. What a privilege to get to meet many of you for the first time.

As is usually the case, I learned so much from your participation and from what you wrote:

• "Okay to fall down - as long as you dust yourself off and try again"
• "Teamwork is the key to getting things done. When everyone gets along, it's easier to work through the situation"
• "Become a better communicator and team player, taking advice from other members on my team and the people that I work with"
• "Be a better helper and listen more and not think I can do it all myself"
• ". . . realizing that you have to take everything one step at a time and set a pace that works for you"
  
• "The value of team work, supporting each other - lending your hand, voice, and heart to help your team get through"
• "How to find out my WHY?s"
• "Take someone that you admire to lunch to get powerful information from that person"
• "Even when things get tough, the answer isn't giving up, it's learning and growing from what you've done and retrying until you succeed"
• "Everyone is important in a group effort, no one should be left behind and everyone needs a little help and motivation. Coaching for a team is very helpful"
• "I loved the interaction with the other fields and students. We don't know very many people besides the ones in our class, and I think it is because we don't have the time"
• " . . . I would like to try to communicate better with people in the school outside my program"
• "Today I found encouragement from a complete stranger. I've never been so comfortable, from the start, with such a large group of people. I've learned to listen more . . . instead of always trying to lead."
• "Listen to all instructions for what is NOT said"
• "Something I learned that I will take with me is that when I am working towards a goal, to pay attention to the details that I might otherwise overlook. It's not a race, and if you hurry too much, you can overlook vital details. Be in the moment more often and don't always look for what's ahead."
• "Having an image of who you are . . . Don't limit your expectations!"
• "Today I discovered that I have the ability to create a difference and not be ashamed of what it is."
• "I recognize that other people can help me in achieving success"
• "Recharge"
• "The true value of friendship is teamwork, also, Don't step in molten peanut butter!"
• " . . . clear my WHY? (get more clarity). I have many reasons. Just narrow it down."
• "Encouraged me to keep going and not ever give up when something seems to pop up to block me."
• I learned and observed that all different departments became one unit to work towards the goal."
