It Is A Direction Not

To Perceive The Internal Frame Of Reference Of Another With Accuracy And With The Emotional Components And Meanings Which Pertain Thereto As If One Were The Person, But Without Ever Losing The "as If" Condition. Thus, It Means To Sense The Hurt Or The Pleasure Of Another As He Senses It And To Perceive The Causes Thereof As He Perceives Them, But Without Ever Losing The Recognition That It Is As If I Were Hurt Or Pleased And So Forth.

The Mainspring Of Creativity Appears To Be The Same Tendency Which We Discover So Deeply As The Curative Force In Psychotherapy, Man's Tendency To Actualize Himself, To Become His Potentialities. By This I Mean The Organic And Human Life, The Urge To Expand, Extend, Develop, Mature - The Tendency To Express And Activate All The Capacities Of The Organism, Or The Self.

People Only Seriously Consider Change When They Feel Accepted For Exactly Who They Are.

A Second Characteristic Of The Process Which For Me Is The Good Life, Is That It Involves An Increasingly Tendency To Live Fully In Each Moment. I Believe It Would Be Evident That For The Person Who Was Fully Open To His New Experience, Completely Without Defensiveness, Each Moment Would Be New.

The Curious Paradox Is That When I Accept Myself Just As I Am, Then I Can Change.
