WATER
In this metaphor, developed by Dr Hugo Alberts (Positive Psychology), the sailboat represents you on your journey of your life.
Just because you have a boat, doesn't mean you can sail anywhere. You need water.
The water represents your space in your world. Your playground of life. You do not live in isolation, you are part of a complex and multi-faceted physical environment - surroundings, climate, people close and distant, job, economics, politics.
The water presently may be smooth sailing but it will also inevitably become rough and hold dangers you can and cannot control.
To master the waters, master your understanding of what element of you life are controllable and what are uncontrollable and become adept at facing and navigating the uncontrollable.
