Position A: Coherence. Coherence refers to the level of internal consistency of a system.
In physics, coherence refers to all correlation properties between physical quantities of a wave. Life purpose is highly
individual, and it is entirely up to you how you choose to define it - the mathematics simply look at how coherent you are
with your chosen purpose.
Position B: Optimization. Optimization refers to the level of self-renewal
in the system. What are the steps you take every day to reinforce who you are and what is important to you? What
efforts do you make to fuel your core purpose and values?
Position C: Happiness. Happiness refers to how you see yourself. The
mathematics show us that this variable can't be taken in isolation from the two preceding variables, a finding that
is supported by our observable experience. For example, if you are happy right at this moment, but aren't coherent,
you may become unhappy as soon as you arrive at work. If you are happy right at this moment, but don't practice
optimization, your happiness may disappear.
Position D: Earning Respect. Earning respect refers to how others see you. Do you take
steps to make yourself valuable in the eyes of the people around you? Once again, the math dictates that this variable
cannot be taken in isolation, and you can see this for yourself by looking around. If you seek respect from others but
don't respect yourself, people may take advantage of you, but if you respect yourself and then seek the respect of
others, you will become more effective.
Position E: Personal Relationships. Personal relationships are the direct connection
between you and the people around you. How do you treat them? How do they treat you?
Position F: Happiness of Others. Happiness of others refers to your relationship with your
community. Unlike the one-on-one relationships in Position E, this variable looks at how connected you feel and the
strength of your belonging. In mathematical terms, the community represents a larger boundary than your personal
relationships or happiness.
Position G: Making a Contribution. Making a contribution refers to your relationship with
society. It is the largest boundary measured by the VortexDNA algorithm and, like all the others, must be taken in
context in order to be a meaningful number.
[subject] coherence number is [digit]. A low number (1 or 2) means your inner purpose is
not reflected consistently in all areas of your life - do you feel as though you are a 'different' person when you're at work?
At home? With friends? Ask yourself what it would take to 'be yourself' at all times.[prompt]
[subject] optimization number is [digit]. A low number (1 or 2)
