Identity, Value, BeliefWhen beginning a Dreamwork project with a client, we usually start by asking three questions.  These are Who am I?, Where am I going?, How will I get there?, and if we are working with a group, then Who are we?, Where are we going?, How will we get there?

Who am I?
Who am I? usually encourages answers that begin to define Identities and Intentions. Our identity is our unique presence, and our intention is what we do with it. It is often what people ask when we meet them for the first time - who are you and what do you do?

Where am I going?
Where am I going? often produces replies that describe Values and Needs. Our value is what we are usually attracted to and our need is what we are drawn towards.  Values and Needs are often the forces that push us or pull us in particular directions.

How will I get there?
How will I get there? tends to elicit responses that express Beliefs and Perspectives. Our belief is usually the story we create about our situation and our perspective is how we position ourselves in that story.

In the Dreamwork Space, the answers to these questions also usually describe the Initiating, Stabilising and Adapting Modes.
