Skills and
routines are learnt in the World. Therefore much of what you are can only 'be'
in the World. In this sense a person is never separate or independent of the
World.
|
Two important
factors come into play: 1. The capacity of the 'individual' to learn particular skills
or routines. (Your natural ability) 2. Accessibility and opportunity in the
World.
|
Given these
factors it can help to: 1. Gain insight into your innate potential and qualities. (Know
thyself) 2. Access a
world that allows you to express and maximize your potential. (Do what's right
for you)

Ideas become
established and are refined as we formulate, experiment and modify our
expectations in the World. Hence:
|
1. What you
think and believe can influence decision-making and action. 2. Humans uniquely ex-ist in time,
always moving towards something. (Fig.1)
|
Accepting
these premises:
|
1. A positive
belief-system and appropriate goals will help you move towards your
ideal. 2. Developing the
skills to match your ideals and goals is essential. 3. Developing a subtle awareness of the degree of
congruence between expectations, behaviour, outcome and experience will
facilitate personal development. (Do beliefs and practice
match?) 4. Alternating
between intentional and spontaneous action (Fig.2) will foster creativity and
help you achieve your goals. (Changing mental gear regularly)
