This is a great little course to get real facility with the Conflict Cloud through *lots* of practice. If you enjoy learning by doing, strap in and have fun! The course is exceptionally well-paced, with the technique elaborated bit by bit, with very helpful pro-tips dropped in along the way. Two big pay-offs: 1. You develop your ability to visualise and where necessary diagram conflict situations in a way that helps transform these difficult situations into opportunities for win-wins through cooperative problem-solving. 2. You learn to apply the technique to your own internal conflicts to get unstuck and to find better solutions to personal dilemmas.

Prior to taking this course I was a cloud skeptic. I had my own methods of self-enquiry that had served me pretty well. But I have to admit, this course helped me see the limitations in my thinking and got me to practice thinking about a whole range of things at home and in life. A valuable exercise which has prompted some new action. Looking forward to the next course to extend on the learning from identifying the problem to crafting a comprehensive solution (pre-requisite trees!)

Before taking this course, I knew that Evaporating Clouds had a lot of potential in problem solving. However, I didn't see that many opportunities for using them. I would write one every once in a great while. But after going through this program, I can see clouds everywhere. My mind has become sensitized to them. And of course, not only can I see them but I can do something to evaporate them. How did this happen? The course guides you through a wax-on, wax-off series of exercises that builds your skills. By the time the course is done, you are proficient and confident at bursting clouds.

After a few false starts with overthinking and getting great feedback to help clarify my thinking, I have really enjoyed it.
