Reaching Potential

If you find yourself saying “There’s more to life than this!” it might be interesting to experiment with playing around with this sentence a little.

Try saying “There’s more to me than this!” instead.
Notice whether the idea of your life changing feels more realistic when you say it this way.

Talking about “life” in the way it’s said in the first sentence keeps it as an abstract concept. Or, at least, it keeps it as some sort of generalised experience that we are all receiving at the same time. Life is something that we experience with other people, that’s true. But what we experience with them is affected by who we are and how we interact with the world.

It’s likely that there is more to you than you currently know. At least I hope so – I like to think that I’ll continue to change and develop as I go through my own life. However, sometimes we need a focus in order to facilitate such change and growth in our personalities. Such personally focused work is often done through a course of Psychotherapy & Counselling.

In this type of work the focus isn’t upon helping you through a specific difficulty, but on helping you become more you.
