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)
