The
human mind; it's truly a phenomenon. Half the time I wonder if we truly
know how it works. It's clear that we only use a small portion of it.
Wouldn't it be great if there was a way to stimulate the rest? Imagine
how intelligent and advanced we'd be. Our world would be completely
different. Then again, it could be a bad thing. Just maybe total chaos
would ensue if we used our entire brain. It's hard to say if it would
do more harm than good. Well, although we fail to use the majority of
our brain, we still study it nonetheless. This study is known as
psychology. Maybe you've had a class in it at one time or another. I
had two college courses in psychology. After reading a few books and
countless psychology articles, I can conclude that we're all confused.
Do
you believe in the concept known as psychology? From what I've
gathered, Tom Cruise does not. Or, more specifically, Scientology
dismisses the practice as hoopla. The name threw me on initially.
Scientology sounds like a creed that would embrace a 'mind science"
like psychology. However, things are not as they seem. From what Tom
spewed out on the Today show, he doesn't agree with psychology or
prescription drugs. Now, before you call him nuts and hate him for all
eternity, I'd like to admit that he has a point. I've read a number of
psychology articles. Some I agree with and some I have deemed bogus.
Often it seems that psychologists are doing what any fool could do.
They're getting you to give them the answers. "Well, what do you
think?" Now, that's brilliant. On the contrary, I do believe that
contemporary psychology has helped many people. Much depends on the
affliction at-hand and the person receiving the treatment. Oh, and of
course the psychologist him/herself.
Read more! We should all
read more. It not only expands your mind, but it offers you more
solutions to things. Now, I'm not just referring to psychology
articles. I am talking about all sorts of topics. One thing I do advise
is reading about famous psychologists. They are often addressed in
psychology articles and books. Consider their point of view. You may or
may not agree, but you will acquire new knowledge either way.
