The Rope of Life Model

This model explores how the decisions we make as children shape our adult lives and decision-making processes. It illustrates the influence of our emotional subconscious and the impact it has on our rational thinking. Early life decisions are the foundation of our values, attitudes, and individuality, and they continue to influence our behavior as adults. By understanding the role of our subconscious and conscious minds, we can gain insight into our decision-making patterns and work towards positive changes.
