“Well, what to say, well, what to say, this is how people are arranged
They want to know, they want to know, they want to know what will happen …"
For a long time, people wanted to know what a person is made of, what is going on inside him, how to understand another person and how to achieve what they want. Photographic facts how shamans helped people to attract love, rain or money, we have not survived, but the fact that the Chinese astrologers of all available people in 12 signs of the zodiacs grouped exactly. They did this by dates of birth, taking into account the Moon. And they also found the relationship between signs and elements - Fire, Water, Earth, Air.
It did not stop there and it is known that the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates classified all people into 4 groups by temperament. He explained temperament by the predominance of one of the "life juices" in the human body:
- yellow bile (ancient Greek hole - bile, poison) - makes a person impulsive, quick-tempered - choleric (Fire);
- blood (sangua - blood) - makes you mobile and cheerful - sanguine (air)
- black bile (melena hole - black bile) - makes you cautious, sad and thoughtful - melancholic (Earth)
- lymph (phlegm - phlegm) - makes calm and slow - phlegmatic person (water).
You and I understand that this is a so-so union, but there was undoubtedly something in this.
The scientist, the first Russian Nobel laureate, physiologist, creator of the science of higher nervous activity Ivan Petrovich Pavlov developed the doctrine of the types of the nervous system - certain complexes of the basic properties of nervous processes common to higher mammals and humans. He substantiated the leading role and dynamic features of the functioning of the central nervous system - the only one from all systems of the body, possessing the ability to universal regulatory and control influences, i.e. which is the physiological basis of mental activity.
In Pavlov's teachings, the basis of temperament is the type of higher nervous activity, determined by the ratio of the basic properties and processes of excitation and inhibition of the nervous system.
The main components of nervous activity are:
- power: the absolute strength of the processes of excitation and inhibition; determines the level of efficiency, the duration and intensity of work, the speed of recovery, the response to weak stimuli;
- equilibrium: the degree of correspondence of the excitation force to the inhibition force or the balance between these processes; determines the level of self-control in an exciting environment, the ability to suppress feelings and desires;
- mobility: the rate of change of excitation by inhibition and vice versa; determines the speed of response to changes in the situation, the ease of acquiring new and losing existing skills.
The force of excitement is the speed and strength of the development of reactions, the force of inhibition is the completeness and speed of extinction, delay of reactions. According to Pavlov, the type of the nervous system is determined by the genotype, that is, it is hereditary. They are born with temperament, and character is formed over the course of life.
And this is really interesting. This is no longer just an interest, but a study that is scientifically based, and gives even more shades for understanding what is happening and what are possible reactions of a person in a given situation.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, with the development of the information revolution, the sources of absorption and reproduction of information expanded, and interest in "what will be and what to do has not disappeared."
Austrian psychologist Carl Gustav Jung noticed that people perceive and evaluate reality differently. The result of his research was the description 16 socionic types of perception … They represent the separation of characteristics in society, allowing to adequately respond to the surrounding reality.
Those. each person has certain characteristics and perceives separate layers of reality (reacts to certain influences), and together people of all types adequately perceive the world as a whole. On the basis of Jung's research, a new science arose - socionics,engaged in informational psychoanalysis and research of the processes of perception, processing and delivery of information by a person.
Jung not only described the features and characteristics inherent in each type, discovered those from which all systems of perception of information of any type are built. Socionics considers these features to be the basis by which any socionic type and the differences between them can be described.
Young's basis consists of 4 pairs of features - dichotomies.
Taken into account sensorics-intuition (determines the source from which information is better perceived), logic-ethics (determines how the world is assessed and decisions are made),
extraversion-introversion (determines the orientation of perception and the direction of energy), rationality-irrationality (determine the method of processing and issuing information).
And now, in our time of the Internet and speed, all kinds of teachings, religious beliefs, psychological trends and esoteric trends, everyone looks at the Life of a Man as in the notorious parable of the blind and the elephant.
“A long time ago, there were blind people in a village. And then, one day, they learned that elephant travelers were in the neighboring village. The sages of the first village went to see the elephant in order to tell the other inhabitants of their village. They looked and, returning home, they began the story.
The first blind man who felt the elephant's tail said: "The elephant is like a snake. It is long and thin and wriggles from time to time."
The second blind man grabbed the elephant's leg. "You're wrong," he said. "An elephant looks like a tree with shriveled bark. I can barely grab it."
"Wait," exclaimed the third blind man who was holding the elephant's trunk. "The elephant is like a hose with a hole at the end to suck in water."
"You are all wrong," the fourth blind man exclaimed, holding the elephant's ear. "The elephant is like a flat hairy piece of burdock. It is thinner than a hose or a snake, and much flatter."
"What are you saying? Exclaimed the fifth blind man who was holding the tusk of an elephant. The elephant is hard and smooth as a stone, and it is pointed at the end. They can injure a person."
They started arguing and shouting "Yes!" "No!", "An elephant like that", "No, not like that." Each with such ferocity proved his innocence that it almost came to a fight. And they were all right."
Interpretation: the parable illustrates the concepts of truth and error … In different contexts, the parable has been associated with relativism, the unknowable nature of truth, the behavior of experts in areas where information is scarce or unavailable, the need for communication, and the need to respect different points of view.
Since psychology is the science of the soul, it is more convenient for me to look closely at a person's life from this point of view, without denying others. We understand that there is no one last resort. Studying psychological theories, practice and personal experience is truly a path to enjoyment and peace of mind. Learn and apply, keep in mind that everyone is different and, indeed, there are similarities that can be studied and used.
Remember that "IMPOSSIBLE-POSSIBLE" and a small step towards knowing yourself is a big energetic movement towards positive changes in your life.

The Husband Lost Interest In His Wife
Almost every day, working on situations related to husbands' betrayal and their departure from the family, I never cease to be amazed at the inattention of women to the topic of family intimacy.

Development Through Fear Or Interest?
(At the end of the anecdote!) From childhood, we are taught to develop through fear. Our attention is focused on mistakes, at school they emphasized with red paste what we did wrong, what needs to be redone. It turned out that if the work was not an A-plus, when there was nothing to complain about at all, then our attention was necessarily drawn to the error.

During a certain period of the relationship (including marriage), many women begin to wonder why a man has lost interest in them. The first and most important reason is, alas, but time is inexorable. The reality is that absolutely all relationships in the first 1-1, 5 years are built on the candy-bouquet period, when in a couple the partners do not notice the shortcomings or some negative qualities of each other or do not focus on this.
