This lecture offers a look at personal development through a system of 12 archetypes - universal models of behavior, desires, and internal reactions. Sometimes a person feels that they are acting according to the same internal patterns over and over again, even though external circumstances change. This lecture proposes to examine such recurring patterns through the model of 12 archetypes - universal scripts of behavior and motivation that are believed to reside in the collective unconscious. Such a conversation helps not only to gain new information but also to take a closer look at oneself and understand what forces are already influencing decisions, reactions, and life choices. Listeners will learn how this system is structured and how leading, suppressed, and shadow archetypes differ.
