The key to sustainable personal and professional success is how well we can understand ourselves and others. Every person is influenced by their empirical knowledge, which they have experienced in certain situations. This creates patterns that settle in the subconscious. Usually these patterns are so strongly internalized that they are not perceived consciously. Even as adults, we behave true to our learned patterns. In a moderate form, their influence on us either can motivate us, or, in the extreme, burden us, constrict or block.
Which preferences we develop, the patterns we follow, is the key to sustained success both personally and professionally, or the cause of misunderstandings and / or failure.
