I am sharing an example that I walked and walked and came to. Once I was walking and thinking that there are now more than seven billion people on our planet, and every year The population of the Earth is growing by almost a hundred million in real time. And there are limitations in the basic resources of some part of the population, and there is inequality, but “on average in a hospital” the standard of living has increased. Telephones, airplanes, steamships, televisions, coffee makers, etc. At the same time, there were no more resources in the land itself. That is, there were always resources. Our distant ancestor Homo erectus walked on the same land that we walk, and theoretically could have found all the resources required to make telephones, airplanes, steamships, coffee makers, etc. And Homo sapiens walked the same earth, and some two hundred years ago did not know what a telephone was. But there is one “but”! I would even say “BUT!” There were resources, but access to their use (technology, knowledge etc.) was missing. And now, thousands of years later, with the development of science, we have knowledge that helps us extract resources from the earth, process them and put them in our pockets to be in touch (phone), sit down and fly (airplane), sit down and sail (steamboat), brew coffee and drink (coffee maker), etc. And with this analogy you can give an example. Example: Imagine that you are a person on Earth tens of thousands of years ago. And everything is under your feet, but nothing You can’t take “all” of this and apply it for your own benefit. Whatever one may say, there is less knowledge. There aren’t enough of them to extract something, let alone make something. And you don’t even know that right under you there is everything to make, let’s say, a hoe! You go around picking berries and hunting some kind of proto-hare. And could sit in a warm apartment, write articles, receive clients and live quite well, without fear that the fire will go out, or a saber-toothed tiger will eat you for dinner. Here is the analogy. You are a person without knowledge of how to obtain resources and how these use resources. You need some kind of action to use the available resources for your own benefit. This could be creativity, a hobby, yoga or sports. And this can be psychotherapy. Psychotherapy makes it possible to get to the resources that already exist in you. At the same time, you don’t need to take these resources from someone, they already exist in the quantities that you need at the moment. And you have achieved that level when you can take as much as you can take - no more, no less. That's why you are here. But you have to work hard. What has been lying there for years takes time to be discovered. And if previously all you could do was hunt proto-hares and pick berries, then as a result of the work, telephones, airplanes, steamships, and, of course, a coffee maker will appear. And it all depends only on you, maybe you don’t need coffee makers, but a fire and a saber-toothed tiger would be nicer. Here I gave such a conditional example, if you already have some kind of contact with the client, and he is friends with a sense of humor. It all depends on the client, environment, contact between therapist and client and many other factors. Here, colleague, there is reliance on intuition. Various questions may arise that also affect the explanation of the effect of therapy - for example, how long therapy lasts. But this is a different topic. Thank you for your attention.
