Future and Attitude : My current attitude toward the future shapes my outlook on it. How I perceive the future influences my actions and mindset now. By analyzing past experiences, I identify patterns that help me compare and validate my expectations and predictions for the future . In other words, the past serves as material for judging the future. Therefore, my judgments and current behavior stem from reflecting on the future I have already envisioned . If I don’t decide on my outlook and attitude toward the future, my present self remains undefined. This is known as ‘CONFLICT.’ Today, an unclear future coexists with past experiences that form specific patterns. Why is time important? Because to exist in the present, both past and future must be simultaneously present. If these two tenses are not reflected now, decision-making stalls , and conflict continues due to its effects. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Books focused on “healing” often dominate the overall bestseller charts in South Korea, indicating strong reader interest in comfort. There are two primary strategies for commercializing healing concepts. The first strategy aims to alleviate guilt while fostering a sense of responsibility. The second approach aims to reinforce guilt but provides comfort after encouraging personal accountability. This methodology is also applicable in areas such as religion and counseling psychology. At the core of the healing industry is the concept of “privatizing pain.” Essentially, it means: “It’s not your fault (reducing guilt), but you have the power to change it (reinforcing responsibility).” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
