why isn't Counselling 101 part of the essential modules that everyone has to take in some point of their life?
you know how people always have the misconception that psychologists can read others' mind?
it's not that tough, actually
it just boils down to listening to what others have to say, and to take notice of the other person's actions. remember what he/she tells you.
but i have realised that not everyone is able to do it.
because it's a skill to listen to someone. to just listen and not give your own input. to put the other person's needs above your own. to focus on the other person.
i can listen to someone talk.
i can focus and put the other party's need above my own.
but who notices me?
