The sailboat metaphor, created by Hugo Alberts, offers a powerful perspective on human functioning. It showcases how different aspects of our lives come together, making it a practical and transformative tool for people of all ages. Just like the elements that drive a sailboat forward, this metaphor illustrates how personal values, the environment, and the steering wheel (rudder) of our lives come together to guide us toward meaningful goals. Recognizing the power of our values and aligning our actions with them can inspire us to live a more authentic and fulfilling life. (I interpret dreams, too. In case you need assistance.)
