Читать книгу How to Explore Your Life Purpose - Dr. Dorothea Kress - Страница 6
INTRODUCTION
ОглавлениеIn this book I will introduce you to learning methods of self-discovery. The goal is to get in touch with your talents, abilities, desires and visions and to find out what really matters in your life. The method is based on an explorative and creative process, which guides you step-by-step to gain self-knowledge and understanding.
Two important points:
First, the basis for everything are your talents, desires and abilities and not a specified goal or ideas. This approach makes the tool more profound than many others.
Second, exercise comes first. You will apply the tool to investigate yourself before you may go deeper into background information and concepts in chapter 3.
The book is divided into three main chapters:
Chapter 1 – The 7-Day Adventure
After a short briefing, you are faced with a 7-day challenge. I highly recommend you to put the book aside and focus on the questions during this time.
When you hold the questions in your head for a while, then your subconscious starts sending you information. It is best to be relaxed and open minded.
Chapter 2 – Interpretation
Thereafter, you will learn how to gain further and deeper insights from your answers.
As in any other creative process nobody can tell you, when the breakthrough and the eye-opening moments will happen. It might be that deep understanding occurs only after a certain period of immersion. There is a rule of thumb among artists: “90 % transpiration and 10 % inspiration”.
Chapter 3 – Background
Finally, I will explain the concept of the tool. I will tell you more about purpose seeking and the historical changes we are going through. We are encouraged to learn new ways of thinking and to build a new mindset. New Life Tools want to support you in these transformation processes.
