Many thanks to you mentioning me- I feel honored to fall into your range of high quality.
You were highly productive - I must now read a lot.
For the lack of time and the late hour, I will come back to you tomorrow.
I already found some interesting paragraphs in this article I for sure have a thought on.
For now have a good night and a good rest:-)
edit (next day) - sorry for this rather long reply:)
Psychology in the sense of the profession of a psychologist is based on the educational content of what is currently recognized by universities - which of the schools are included in teaching, which are not. The understanding of psychology occurs to lay people only where the activities of a psychologist become visible in the form of events in their life. For example, in non-technical publications, in cooperation with a psychologist as client or patient. Since the curriculum cannot integrate all the influences and research in this field that has ever existed, the study is to a certain extent limited to what is state of the art. Here in Germany, a psychologist is only allowed to do therapy if, after completing his psychology studies, he has completed a five-year training as a therapist. Therefore, a distinction is made in Germany between therapists and psychologists. And then there are people like me who have completed psychology-based consulting training and do not provide diagnoses or prescribe drugs.
I think it is a rather difficult but interesting profession because many people have an interpretation of it and this profession does not work with objects, but with people. People also feel much more entitled to participate than, for example, in the profession of a chemist. Everyone knows what a life crisis is, but hardly anyone can say the chemical composition of compounds.
The great interest in psychology and the misinterpretation of terms, method, and theories is, therefore, a frequently occurring phenomenon. Now we are also married to the neurologists when it comes to the drug treatment of patients and these are not therapists. What I find is that there is seldom, if ever not at all, contact between these two professions, which treat one and the same patient. That's just a side note. Psychological findings are used in many other areas, such as marketing and advertising.
If we compare this again with the chemist, it becomes clear how much psychology permeates our lives. We talk about it, we read about it, we are very interested in it. I think that is quite right. The potential of "Understanding" lies in the revelation of misunderstandings and misinterpretations. One can, so to speak, ride the wave by turning to the interest of a human being and using misunderstanding as a bridge to get through what drives a human being. At the same time, one learns another form of "language" and enriches one's ability to communicate. You pointed that out.
It was important to me that you stressed that a psychologist should know himself very well. To be at the service of people requires a mature person who knows his or her own weaknesses and strengths well. Who always becomes aware of his intentions at the moment of their creation - it is an ongoing process. Who's sure of himself without getting arrogant. I would say that in the practice of the profession, a psychologist learns a lot about himself and owes it to his clients or patients. Wherever he receives supervision, his colleagues provide him with valuable support.
I would think that especially in the field of psychology every professional should also deal with ethics. Basically, this applies to any kind of work, whether it be gainful employment or honorary work. Where we have influence over others, it is valuable to review and follow an ethical code. So I have an instrument that lets me know where I'm either harmful or useful.
I want to thank you again for this inspirational article. I can see, that we feed each other with thorough thoughts.
Thank you for your time to read this and to reply with this thoughtful comment.
It's always a pleasure to present your articles,, so for me it's normal to present you as an example of quality content.
It's obvious that you put a lot of effort and mental labor in your content, including this comment as well.
That's the main reason why I follow you, and most of the other great people who fill my newsfeed.
As you pointed out we feed each other with constructive thoughts, ideas and inspiration and that's the most valuable thing on Steemit.
:)
Yes, and what I found most fascinating is that the inbuilt reward-system (the money) is used for a measurement of quality. To my own surprise, I realized that writing on the blockchain I discipline myself much more as somewhere else where I do not get paid. Even within the running of my former blog-site where I concentrated on quality content, it didn't reach the standard I am looking for here on Steemit. Because the difference is that the commenters are paid as well, which was not the case on my blog. That feeding-function is really a thing:)
Although I understand what you are saying, allow me to disagree with you on this one
We wish it was true, but sadly it's not and I hope someone would fix it soon.
Anyway
is absolutely true and that's the reason we all aim to produce quality posts, which inspire each other of us. It's a perfect circle ! :)
Smile.
I meant it more on a psychological meta-level, not the actual amount of payment. I know, you know that ;-)
Oh, and I hope you were not thinking of my former loooong comment: "Why is she telling me that?" Sometimes I myself get a little offended by that, and then I think, the intention was probably to add something which might be obvious to me but not to other readers.
Now you're the one over-thinking :) I never get offended, because these posts are not about me. They are about the people who want to read and learn more. So the more comments like yours therr are- the better!
LOL! Now I did that! :-) I was over thinking!! Thanx :-)
