The AUM model to realize one's full potential

Aum is a sacred sound and a spiritual symbol in Indian religions. It signifies the essence of the ultimate reality, consciousness, or Atman. More broadly, it is a syllable that is chanted either independently or before a spiritual recitation in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism.

The organismic theorist Kurt Goldstein coined the motive to realize one's full potential: self-actualization. Self-realization is to know oneself. The term can be traced to Advaita Vedanta which means to realize the truth of one's existence. Nir Golan, Educational & Leadership expert, suggests using Dobeing instead of two terms: Doing and Being. Dobeing means to do my being.

 

The AUM model by Nir Golan:
Dobeing is the heart of three cycles: Abilities, Uniqueness and
Motivation.
Self-realization is identifying our Abilities, Uniqueness and Motivation.

·        Abilities: Skills I'm good at and I do the best.

·        Uniqueness: My significant behavior and added value to those around me.

·        Motivation: The things I like to do most and excite me.

Dobeing is realizing one's full potential according to these three cycles. Dobeing is a combination between Self-realization and self-actualization. 
In Goldstein's view, it is the organism's master motive, the only real motive: "the tendency to actualize itself as fully as possible is the basic drive... the drive of self-actualization." The only way to "actualize itself" is by using the motivation that you must do what you do best and spread your uniqueness all around. Carl Rogers similarly wrote of "the curative force in psychotherapy - man's tendency to actualize himself, to become his potentialities... to express and activate all the capacities of the organism."

Dobeing is a combination of doing and being, therefore it is a new term. Golan assumes that these two terms should be fused and not use as a conflict term. Dobeing is to express and activate all the Abilities, Uniqueness and Motivation of the organism- the AUM model.
