Everyone has encountered a situation when they want something new, but it seems that learning it is very difficult and takes a long time. For some it is to master Photoshop, for others to get a license, and for others to learn how to bake a cake. And one can only be surprised how others do it without even thinking. What is this invisible barrier that stands in the way of our development? The name of this obstacle is priority needs. The apparent difficulty in mastering something new is almost always associated with a lack of strength, moreover, emotional strength. Development appears where there is a desire to satisfy a need, but under one condition: for development there must be resources, i.e. there must be readiness, and if there are no resources, then there is nothing to grow with. Every postponed task and unfulfilled need draws attention to itself and takes away energy. And where there is no strength, there is no opportunity for growth. It is a known fact that children do not study well when there are problems in the family. And it’s not a matter of poor abilities, but they are simply not up to studying right now. It's hard to think about solving a problem when you don't know what to expect at home. The same is true for adults: how to allocate energy for something new if there are personal problems that have not been solved for years... The mechanism seems clear, but what to do next? Difficulty arises when the need is poorly understood or not recognized at all. In life, this looks like a general decrease in strength for no obvious reason. There are no special desires, and the only question arises: “How can I want something?” This is a known difficulty with low motivation. Here, an unresolved problem becomes such a norm of life that it simply goes unnoticed. Often this situation seems to be a dead end - motivation is low, but there seems to be no reason. But the reason for the lack of strength is always unfulfilled needs that simply need to be found. Lots of strength and good mood to you!
