In the February Tarot Tools newsletter, Mark McElroy riffed off an earlier post of mine pointing to Lisa Haneberg's post asking, "Who are you when you're great?"
Mark takes it and gives it a brainstorming spin...
Right away, I saw that these great questions could be adapted into a brainstorming spread – an exercise in creative thinking that could help you glimpse your own greatness and achieve that state more consistently!
From the Bright Idea Deck (or a Tarot deck), pull six cards, arranging them in a pyramid:
- one card on the top row
- two cards on the middle row,
- three cards on the bottom row.The cards represent the answers to the following questions:
Card One: “Who are you when you’re being great?”
Card Two: “How do you work or act when you’re being great?”
Card Three: “How do you think or feel when you’re being great?”
Card Four: “What’s your personal Key to Greatness?”
Card Five: “What’s an obstacle to your achievement of Greatness?”
Card Six: “What’s one small step toward Greatness you can take today?”
I recently blogged a review on The Bright Idea Deck, as well as my thoughts on Mark's book, Putting the Tarot to Work if you want to check them out.

I would add one more card:
Who helps you when you're being great?
Nice exercise.
