Chapter 8: Working with the seven keys

This last chapter of Saying What's Real is largely a recap of what has come before, with some additional advice on putting these key phrases into practice.

Some tidbits:

• "Remember, the goal is not to keep your partner comfortable. The goal is aliveness, spontaneity, presence, and honesty."
• "[These key phrases] guide you gently into the here-and-now, which is where the relationship is really happening."

And we're done!

Overall, I think Getting Real is a better book than Saying What's Real, and if you are thinking of reading one of Susan Campbell's books, or any book on authentic/honest communication, I wholeheartedly recommend Getting Real as a starting point. But Saying What's Real also has some very useful material.
