We as modern applied psychologists ask the questions as:
1- What is the mind and How does it work ?
2- How is it that people best motivate themselves ?
3- What is the main key to resolving life’s problems ?
4- How can we communicate others more effectively ?
5- How does the mind influence our emotional experience ?
6- What is intelligence and why should we even care ?
7- What does it mean for us to become self-actualized ?
8- Why do we do what we do ?
Desire that never fails its aim,
Aversion that never falls into what it wants to avoid,
Motivation that accords with one’s duty,
Purpose that is carefully weighed,
Assent that is not over hasty…
Epictetus…
