How to read it
The cross on the left has six cards: the present and the challenge crossing it form the core; the foundation below and recent past to the left explain how it began; the conscious aim above and near future to the right show where it is going. The staff on the right reads bottom to top: your attitude, environment, hopes and fears, and the outcome. Read the cross first, then the staff, and finally compare the outcome with the present and the conscious aim.
