Have you ever noticed yourself acting in ways that are similar to that of people close to you? For example, most people tend to realize they are "acting like their father" or "turning into their mother".

These come from subconscious modeling behaviors. We do this even when we aren't aware of it. But what if we could discover our patterns, make them conscious, and then choose what and who we wish to model. Perhaps you wish to model someone with incredible health and wellness, maybe there is a couple with a relationship that you wish to model or even someone who has excelled in their career the way you wish to.

When we have the awareness we get to make choices that help transform and lead us into the life we truly wish to live.
