Glossary of Terms — Your Life Numbers

Your Direction represents the blueprint of your life’s purpose. It is the journey you are meant to walk and the lessons you are here to learn. Coach Wu believes that your Direction is like a river—sometimes it flows gently, sometimes it crashes through rapids, but it always finds its way.

Example: Coach Wu once worked with a young entrepreneur who felt lost and uncertain about his career path. After uncovering his Direction, the entrepreneur realized he was naturally aligned with creating community-driven projects. Once he leaned into this, doors began to open, and his business flourished.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “When you understand your Direction, every decision becomes a step towards your purpose.”

Your Voice reveals how you express yourself to the world—your talents, strengths, and the unique way you communicate. Coach Wu says, “Your Voice is the song you sing in the world. When you find your voice, you find your power.”

Example: There was a woman Coach Wu mentored who always felt like her ideas were misunderstood. Through understanding her Voice, she realized her power was not in volume but in clarity. She began to communicate with precision, and suddenly, people started listening.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “When your voice is clear, your impact is unstoppable.”

Your Strengths reflect your potential and what you are meant to achieve. It is the grand design of your life. Coach Wu often shares that understanding your Strengths is like finding the stars that guide your ship—when you know where you’re going, the journey becomes clearer.

Example: Coach Wu remembers guiding a client who felt unfulfilled in her career. After understanding her Strengths, she shifted her focus to roles that allowed her to lead and innovate. Within months, she was promoted, and her satisfaction soared.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “When you recognize your strengths, the world recognizes your value.”

This number uncovers your deepest desires and motivations. It is what your heart truly longs for. Coach Wu describes it as the quiet whisper that guides your decisions, even when you are not aware of it.

Example: Coach Wu once mentored a man who kept shifting careers, never finding satisfaction. Through uncovering his Deepest Desires, he realized he was driven by the need for freedom and creativity. He started his own business, and for the first time, he felt truly alive.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “Listen to the whispers of your heart; they are guiding you home.”

These are the major phases of growth and change in your life. Coach Wu compares them to the seasons—each cycle brings its own challenges and opportunities for growth.

Example: Coach Wu once mentored a young artist who struggled during her first few years. He explained that she was in her early Growth Phase, where challenges were meant to forge resilience. When she understood this, she embraced the difficulties, and soon after, her work began to flourish.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “Every season has its purpose. Embrace your growth, even when it’s uncomfortable.”

Just as the moon follows its cycle, so too does your life follow smaller cycles of influence. Understanding your Daily & Yearly Rhythms can help you make decisions with greater awareness.

Example: Coach Wu recalls guiding a client who always felt burnt out in November. Through understanding his yearly rhythm, he realized this was his natural period for reflection and rest. Once he accepted this, he began planning his biggest projects during his peak times instead.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “When you understand your rhythms, you stop fighting time and start flowing with it.”

These represent unfinished business from the past—lessons that still need to be learned. Coach Wu believes that recognizing these patterns is the first step in breaking free from their influence.

Example: Coach Wu worked with an entrepreneur who kept repeating the same business mistakes. Through understanding her Unresolved Patterns, she uncovered old habits of overcommitting and under-prioritizing. When she broke the cycle, her business finally took off.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “The patterns of your past do not have to define your future.”

These are the areas where growth is needed for you to reach your full potential. Coach Wu often says, “Your Skills to Master are the keys to unlocking the doors that hold you back.”

Example: One of Coach Wu's mentees always felt stuck in her career. Coach Wu guided her to understand her Skills to Master: communication and leadership. When she worked on these, she broke through the glass ceiling and started leading her own team.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “Mastery is the bridge between potential and achievement.”

These are the secret motivations that drive your decisions and shape your journey. They often remain hidden until you are ready to face them.

Example: Coach Wu helped a writer who constantly procrastinated on her projects. Through understanding her Inner Motivations, she realized she was driven by perfectionism and fear of judgment. When she embraced the process over perfection, her work blossomed.

Coach Wu's Wisdom: “Your hidden motivations are the roots of your choices—when you understand them, you understand yourself.”
