In part IV of the Hero's Journey, we learn to listen to the small clues that we receive in our life that something is out of balance.  If we hear the "soft signals" and course correct, we can, potentially, avoid the bumpier terrain.  The question is not if life is sending us signals, it's what are the signals?  In this discussion we see how moving away from the victim mentality and change our perspective, we can use the experience to move forward.
