How to understand this Journey Map

The Journey Map is inspired by the world game Snakes and Ladders. You will find snakes and ladders in the map, but with a plot twist in the game. Start from the top by rolling the dice and move trough the categories of priorities down to the bottom of the map. Just like the original game you will find snakes and ladders in the positions bases on priorities leading to requirements. If you land on a ladder, move back up because you have missed a requirement. You can move down further when landing on a snake, leading you to the next steps. This allows you to move forward on the map. 

Don't let your personal needs triumph over general requirements in the journey!
