The past does not define us.

" There is no psychology, there is only biography and autobiography . "

" Among the animals is "eat or be eaten" among humans, "define or be defined ".

Thomas Szasz . .

Psychoanalysis in many societies became one of the most, how to say it?, routine things. When ask to a person to make a list with the activities she does during the week, it is difficult to find one that does not say - go to therapy - referring to psychoanalysis. To the extent that it is making contact with people, one of the first things one become aware is how many make therapy, to the point of seems to be rare that person who says do not go to psychoanalisis sesion because it has not the need.

This phenomenon, like all things, it is not coincidence, has a cause or origin and is not the stressful of to live in society, since in the past people didn't pass wonderfull times. All time had its complications, this is not a worse, in fact some argue that these times should be better.

What these times can have and that does not help is the need imposed and self-imposed of self-definition to be located (or lost) in the world, this self-definition is made on a base, somewhat unstable by if not illusory, that is the past, or better, the memories.

If given enough importance to the mind and its workings, it can see better these

aspects, especially the memory.

What if it was implanted false memories to mind?, Would this change her personality or the way than she sees herself?, and what happens to the personality of the people who lose their memory?.

Memories are only in the mind of those who evokes this events of the past, in the present. The interesting thing about this is that these memories often change over time and vary depending emotions that mobilize this person is living. That is, the memories are recreated.

In this way, the person can mold logically her past to her present and reinforce the ideas she has of itself.

These ideas can vary from each other, but at the core, all have a lack of value. That is, there are those who define themselves with adjectives that border narcissism and others, self-destructive criticism, and whatever the case, assign in a decisive way personal aspects from self-examination of itself carries the result of self- limitation and why not the frustration of not being able to be that what is not.

When people use self-definition, believing that they do as acceptance do not realize that what they are creating is the prison to themselves that will not let them go beyond the possibilities they thought limited.

The past does not define people, but people define the past and more, they define how influence this in their life in the present.

As you look at your past is how you feel in the present and will forge your future.

This is how, people do not go out of lives that maintain one line,without changing too much the way they see and feel the world. 

Many are now using the "I am" as a justification or excuse to not to take the step that will give them the adventure that hope in their life.

I am very quiet, I'm very active, I'm very shy, I'm very insecure, I am, I am ...

“I am” is a powerful phrase to the mind, you are that what you define to be. I'm happy, I'm patient, I'm brave, I'm able, I'm smart.

Why not define now voluntarily what I AM? instead of believing that the past once molded me and there is nothing to do.

Use "I am" as an active definition to dissolve chronic destructive thinking and underestimation, of own capabilities, take off to the past, all power of domain from emotions, for to give life, energy and enthusiasm to the present.

For the new being who born NOW.

Salud.

If there was and there is no more, who can ensure?.
Where is the memory? From where, the remembered come from?.
Present is precious gift.

Losing the lost what was lost in the past, to recreate it, what model I'm using?.
Fleeting pulses of the electro-static universe, a bit from here and there, ready, armed. Now front of me, again the past. Micaela Javi..
