You Will Either Step Forward Into Growth

Become Aware Of Internal, Subjective, Sub-verbal Experiences, So That These Experiences Can Be Brought Into The World Of Abstraction.

Life Could Be Vastly Improved If We Could Count Our Blessings As Self-actualizing People Can And Do, And If We Could Retain Their Constant Sense Of Good Fortune And Gratitude For It.

We Can Consider The Process Of Healthy Growth To Be A Never Ending Series Of Free Choice Situations, Confronting Each Individual At Every Point Throughout His Life, In Which He Must Choose Between The Delights Of Safety And Growth, Dependence And Independence, Regression And Progression, Immaturity And Maturity.

People With Intelligence Must Use Their Intelligence, People With Eyes Must Use Their Eyes, People With The Capacity To Love Have The Impulse To Love And The Need To Love In Order To Feel Healthy. Capacities Clamor To Be Used, And Cease Their Clamor Only When They Are Used Sufficiently. That Is To Say, Capacities Are Needs, And Therefore Are Intrinsic Values As Well.

It Is Vital That People "count Their Blessings:" To Appreciate What They Possess Without Having To Undergo Its Actual Loss.
