this morning my cup of tea begin with a book on psychology....
Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl_Jung founded the field of analytical psychology and,
along with Sigmund Freud,, was responsible for popularizing the
idea that a person’s interior life merited not just attention but dedicated
exploration — a notion that has since propelled tens of millions of people into
psychotherapy. Freud, who started as Jung’s mentor and later became his rival,
generally viewed the unconscious mind as a warehouse for repressed desires,
which could then be codified and pathologized and treated. Jung, over time,
came to see the psyche as an inherently more spiritual and fluid place, an
ocean that could be fished for enlightenment and healing.
The Law of Paradoxical
Intent points out the underlying paradox of personal achievement: You can get
what you want by knowing that you don’t need it to be happy! It forces you to
shift your focus from a desperate intention to a peaceful pursuit. Never send
out the energy that you’re willing to wait to be happy — just that you’re
willing to wait for the goal. Needing a particular achievement before you can
live with peace and joy creates a desperate energy that’s absolute poison to
the resonance of success, so be clear about your intentions and fearless in
your motivations. Pursue your goals because you want them to enhance an already
happy life, not because you’ll be miserable without them.
