Book excerpt: Life is a constant flux. As technologies continue to fuse the physical, digital, and biological worlds, how are you coping with the disruption? In my practice as a learning designer and talent coach/facilitator of adult learning, I encounter many adults who are ill-prepared for change and disruption. They constantly fumble around trying to determine where they wish to go. When I developed my prototype of a learning toolkit, my learners liked what they saw and quickly adopted it for use. Hence, Myrita was born, inspired by the Spanish name Rita, which means ‘pearl’. Myrita is a space for you to pause, ponder, and prosper. This journal is a culmination of anecdotes, tools, frameworks, and pearls of wisdom. This booklet aids you as you shift your priorities, or take on new life projects. Myrita serves a set of prompts and reminders for your lifelong learning journey. As you navigate the disruption in your life, Myrita documents your thoughts and deliberate plans for self-exploration, self-awareness, and personal development. Myrita is designed for self-directed learners who aspire to become slightly better versions of themselves. There is no definite magic formula to turn everything into exactly what you want. For that, you need to find the delicate balance between planning to make your goals happen and learning to cope with any disruption that may come along. Myrita aims to be your trusted companion in developing and realising your raison d’être. Myrita may be adapted to your coaching practice, educational institution, or learning organisation to cater to specific developmental needs. You may contact me for a coffee chat at [email protected]. May we all be well and happy and safe.
