This article validates what I know to be true. Our childhood memories influence our adult choices. No need to be "On the couch". Rather, it is required to become "Pattern aware" and notice where the reflections from our "little selves" get activated at home, at work, and even in the kind of house we choose.

I agree that personal proficiency is at the core of great leadership. I would like to take the discussion one step deeper. It is more than the physical, emotional, social, intellectual, and spiritual realms that need to be considered. It is also the intergenerataional legacy aspects of a person's life that, if factored in, make a world of difference.

Bravo to Gregory Berns! He gives us a roadmap for getting into uncharted territory. I would like to add an additional perspective: Hebb’s Law states “Neurons that fire together wire together.” That is how role stereotypes become deeply ingrained and follow us throughout life. Someone labels us when we are kids (the smart one, the pretty one, the lazy one, etc.) we hear this over and over and we react accordingly. We become the label and take the “brain shortcut,” route, often throughout life whether it helps or hinders us.
