Little is really known of the actual potentials of human functioning.

The unconscious works without your knowledge and that is the way it prefers.

Life is lived in the present and directed toward a future.

Emphasis should be placed more on what the patient does in the present and will do in the future than on a mere understanding of why some long-past event occurred.

Every person's map of the world is as unique as their thumbprint.There are no two people alike. No two people who understand the same sentence the same way... So in dealing with people, you try not to fit them to your concept of what they should be.

Each person is a unique individual. Hence, psychotherapy should be formulated to meet the uniqueness of the individual's needs, rather than tailoring the person to fit the Procrustean bed of a hypothetical theory of human behavior.

There are so many things in human living that we should regard not as traumatic learning but as incomplete learning, unfinished learning.
