The birth of the bootstrapper: Talents + Passion = AWAKEN

This phase is the development of the individual as they work on their passions and talents. It starts at birth and goes on for many years, usually through childhood and schooling. It is a time of preparation that culminates in an awakening when the individual comes to decide that they would like to combine their passions and talents to create their life's work.

  1. Talents are the internal capabilities of the individual, the discovery of their Core Type: Maven, Relater, Evangelist.
  2. Passions are those things that the individual is interested in outside themselves - such as computers, food, art, etc.

Awakening can happen through a variety of factors including supportive parents and environment; indeed it is many times an unsupportive environment that spurs the individual. This is akin to the Call to Adventure described by Joseph Campbell.

Regardless of the causes, it is an internal decision that happens for the individual.


NOTE: The Bootstrap Network does not concern itself directly with individuals in Preideation. Rather, we work with schools, universities and organizations (such as FLOW) to promote the active exploration of passions, talents and inspiration.
