The Magic Diamond: Jung's 8 Paths for Self-Coaching (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798682551965)

Who are you really? That is, how do you operate? And what is your best route to up your level in life?

A century ago, the famous Swiss psychiatrist Dr. C.G. Jung described eight ways people function. Like right versus left handedness, we develop preferences-our gifts.

But what's next? First, we can nurture our gifts. We can also deal with our shadowy blind-spots and chart a path that continually completes the pattern of who we are. Jung predicted how the brain works: We start largely undifferentiated and grow with biases, then conflicts and crises arise inevitably, and we can retreat from those opportunities or we can choose to reinvent ourselves. What is your choice?

Based on the work of C.G. Jung's 8 Psychological Types, with over thirty pages of quotations and analysis.

• Starts with a brain-based introduction to 8 cognitive processes.
