1. Everyone lives in his own world. It is ‘his’ because only he can experience it.
2. Everyone perceives reality through his own conditional vision.
3. Everyone reacts as a whole being to his reality.
4. The person has one drive. He can work toward or away from self determined integration.
5. Behavior is the method of satisfying needs as seen by the individual, based on his conditioning…most of the time.
6. Emotion governs the degree of intensity of behavior. Emotion is of two types. Unpleasant or excited or calm and satisfied. Emotional behavior affects the conditioned mind regardless of body needs at the time.
7. The best way to understand people is to ‘walk a mile in their mocassins’. He is aware that their behavior is to them right, proper, or justifiable for the time, place, and circumstances.
8. Certain decisions are made regarding experiences. These decisions are motivating forces in conditioning the self.
9. As a result of decisions made by experiencing (usually in infancy and non verbalized) the conditioned self is formed and behaves according to these decisions.
10. Some values are achieved by self experience..others by belief in’authorities’ and judged as if self experienced.
11. Experiences are either 1. Applied and used. 2. Passed by because they contradict previous conditioning.
12. Most behavior is governed by feeling rather than by physical needs.
13. Some behavior, motivated by distortions of experiences (11-13) will be denied by the individual because of its inconsistencies.
14. Psychological maladjustments occurs when the individual denies awareness and lives by distorted conditioning based on the fourth through the sixth decisions.
15. Adjustment occurs (develops) and integration begins when an individual becomes aware of his conditioning and decisions, realizes he is no longer must be controlled by them, finds out who he is, where he is, what he is doing, and what he can do.
