Case2: Motivation Decline from Unused Past Energy and Strategic Reboot
This case demonstrates the diagnosis of an internal challenge using Person Analysis (Mayan Cross) and a motivation recovery strategy based on logical constraints.
I. Defining the Challenge
Member A (NAWAL: Chicchan) possessed the energy representing passion and initiative. However, A experienced a prolonged state of low motivation in the current team activity, feeling a loss of role and energy stagnation. A’s characteristic passionate side was completely dormant.
II. MLS Analysis Results (Visualization of Constraints)
[Analysis Axis] Person Analysis (Mayan Cross)
A deep Person Analysis (Who) using the Mayan Cross identified A’s Past NAWAL as Caban (Energy of Evolution and Development).
- NAWAL Chicchan (Current Essence): Passion, Creativity.
- Past NAWAL Caban (Past Unused Challenge): Energy for developing and evolving things.
A’s initial involvement (observing from a distance, participation without a clear role) was logically connected to the state where the active energy of Caban (“evolution and development”) was unused in the past stage. MLS diagnostic logic identified this underutilization of past energy as the “Shadow Challenge” obstructing the manifestation of current passion (Chicchan).
III. Logically Derived Strategy
[Strategy Design] The Strategic Space was designed to intentionally fill the previously unused Caban (Evolution and Development) energy through present action.
- Strategic Constraint: The essential action constraint was defined as: “First, initiate something new within the team.”
- Action Narrowing: The specific action chosen was not a large project, but the “evolutionary” action of “planning a social gathering (drinking event).” This satisfied the Caban role of “creating something that did not previously exist” within the team, serving as a logical approach to reboot stalled motivation.
IV. Reproduction of Action and Results
Execution of the MLS-derived action strategy (planning the gathering) resulted in an objective change in A’s internal state:
- Reproducibility of Motivation: The proactive act of “development”—planning something new—triggered the re-activation of NAWAL Chicchan’s original passion, leading to A’s active engagement with the team thereafter.
- Logical Conclusion: This confirmed that action based on the MLS logical constraint (addressing unused Caban energy) reproduced the positive outcome (rekindled motivation), providing logical evidence for solving a subjective challenge.
