THE ART OF THE BREAK THROUGH
Breakthroughs are slow because you don't know how to
do it. The art of the breakthrough is the practice of figuring
out all the ways to not do it on your way to an insight.
Dead ends and failures are the key element of your work.
We find our way by getting lost.
Anything other than that is called reading a map.
(based on Seth Godin)

BOUNCE BABY, BOUNCE:
Life isn’t about how high you
climb or how fast you run. It’s
about how high you bounce.
Dr. Leahcim Semaj

MANY ARE PARANOID,
I AM PRONOID.
Each day I live with the
irrational feeling that things
are happening for me,
not to me.

YOU DESIGN YOU
While it is helpful and even fun to learn
from other people like you, you are a
unique individual and you need to take
the time now to put on paper a true and
honest assessment of yourself.

Step 1: What Activities Are
Consistent With Your Personality?
Personality affects all aspects of a
person's performance, even how s/he
reacts to situations.
Not every personality is suited for
every job position, so it's important to
recognize your personality traits and
understand what it is that you bring to
the work environment.

Consistent With Your Personality?

you wish to build your
career around?

Weaknesses

we do best.
it is important to identify
our work-related
strengths so we can
make sure our job will be
enjoyable.

Step 3: What Interests You?
What is Your Passion?
◦Think about your strongest
interests.
◦They may be specific activities like
hiking or writing, or in general
areas such as music or business.
◦Try to identify those things you
enjoy so much you would do them
for free if you could afford to.

What is Your Dharma?
◦The seventh spiritual law of
success is the Law of Dharma.
◦Dharma is a Sanskrit word that
means “purpose in life.”
◦The Law of Dharma says that we
have taken manifestation in
physical form to fulfill a purpose.

According to this law,
◦you have a unique talent and a unique way of expressing it.
◦There is something that you can do better than anyone else in the
whole world — and for every unique talent and unique expression
of that talent, there are also unique needs.
◦When these needs are matched with the creative expression of
your talent, that is the spark that creates affluence.
◦Expressing your talents to fulfill needs creates unlimited wealth
and abundance.
◦Have you discovered what this is as yet?

the Law of Karma.
◦“Karma” is both action and the
consequence of that action;
◦it is cause and effect
simultaneously, because every
action generates a force of energy
that returns to us in like kind.

Step 6: What Are You Prepared to Give?
◦Everyone has heard the expression, “What you sow is
what you reap.”

sow the seeds for it.

choice-making.
