Below is a reflection of one investigator's mental model of "My Life Now." This person's life experience currently illustrates feeling "stuck" in a cocoon and not having realized how "pulled in so many directions" he/she feels everyday. The butterfly on "My Life" is what life looks like when "getting ahead."

The illustration below of the larger butterfly, describes the investigator's life now in greater detail.  The butterfly symbolizes the future hope to no longer be stuck in the "tyranny of the moment"
