Talking about "wellness model", I am rather excited about it as I have
made my own conclusion about a functional working model as against the
theoretical model of LO i.e. Aspiration, Collaboration and Dealing with
Complexity. I call this model - "The Hexagon of Life" under LifePlanning
as per

indicating two foundamental variables to be tackled :

1) Individual learning capability and

2) Social Systems

A typical rational, logical and linear approach will result in endless
debate of either / or, chicken and egg situation.

I tend to see Social Systems stem from individuals as living neclus that
get connected with one another forming a collective sphere of influence.

What are your views?
