Why Freud Was Wrong
I’m not a big fan of psychoanalysis. The main reason is that most psychology and psychiatry doesn’t focus on what’s positive.
Rather, it quite often reinforces the negative.
How on earth can that create a positive change? Beats me. Even worse, this kind of approach creates dependency. It’s one thing to release and let go of the past. But go back an relive it - just doesn’t make sense. Regurgitating the negative will never change you into a happy, healthy person.
Imagine having a session with a professional. She asks you to talk about your life. You notice her taking notes. When you finish you’re pleasantly surprised. In fact you’re thrilled.
Here’s why.
Instead of her re-hashing the stuff that’s painful to you, she only wants to talk about those experiences and events that were rewarding, exciting and fulfilling. She completely ignores all the stuff you’d rather not revisit anyway. All she wants to focus on are the positive experiences you’ve had so far.
That’s what I call activating your joyful future.
Joy is never emerges from a recipe of depressed, despondent, sorrowful ingredients.
It’s really quite simple. Though we’ve complicated things immensely. To be perfectly blunt, focusing on what you perceive to be your limitations is a kind of self-imposed hell.
A conscious mind won’t wallow in self-pity. It will transform you into a responsible, creative person. Someone who is both focused and totally relaxed. A person who is both kind and courageous.
Remember all the fulfilling, successful events in your life. Do this while listening to wholesome, good, positive music. You’ve just created an incredibly potent recipe for joy and success.

P.S. For all you Freudian followers, imagine for a moment pointing the arrow towards a goal that makes you feel so wonderful - you can’t help but smile. It’s the secret all happy, healthy people can vouch for.
