Heroes Journey
What assets, best practices, allies and their range of capabilities need to be gathered to navigate life's journeys successfully?
If you can't picture success how will you recognize it?
Start with the end clearly in mind then work back to imagine how you will get there.
Narratives shape perception of reality. Leverage the organising power of intent through succinct communication that delivers the right message at the right time.
Success is a state of mind that flows from aligning actions with intentions. Inner space is the most valuable place to explore.
Explore ideas, don't become owned by them.
Fulfillment
What do people need? how do they attract that? and how they recognise they are on track?
The two most important days of your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why.
People just want to feel validated.
