Psychology and Personal Understanding
This is one article I wrote for my psychology module out of pure understanding and inspiration.
It feels weird when you try to classify your everyday action, yet ironically you can actually get to understand yourself better at the same times. Sometimes we feel that we do things that we don't understand or know why we do them. However, psychology has yet to prove us otherwise. "Cause and effect", "reasons and meanings" and " Problems and solutions" occupy the times from our daily life.
For me, I guess most of my experiences are attributed accordingly to what I feel inside. You can say it's internal and controllable, yet most of the things that happen after I act accordingly to what I feel innately are external and uncontrollable. I can't predict and control how other people react to my actions, but I can learn to handle them better.
So I do feel that from external and uncontrollable attributions, you can sort of modify your internal and controllable attributions to suit the general public. But, does it kill the real you? Does it erode whatever individuality and uniqueness you hold dear to yourself? These questions remain unanswered, but I have faith that one day, I will have a compromise of internal, external, controllable and uncontrollable attributions.
Today's trigger did ignite some thoughts and pondering in my mind. I learnt a lot even though it seems to little and I hope that in time to come, I will come to understand myself better by understanding the fascinating works of the human mind.

My Colourgenic Profile from http://www.paulgoldinresearch.com/cg
You feel as if you have missed out on a great deal that life had to offer and you go about trying to make up for past failures. Naturally at times you get depressed and you try to compensate for your 'missed opportunities' by living your life to the full. This is what, perhaps, may be described as 'living with exaggerated intensity'. In this way you feel you can break the chains of the past and start again - and it could be that you are right.
Being a somewhat gentle, emotional and sensitive person, you are at this time experiencing a considerable amount of tension. What you really need is someone who can be close to you and to listen to what you have to say.
You give the impression that you are a self-sufficient individual, pretending that you are stoical - indifferent to pain or pleasure. But this is not so, for in truth you are an extremely emotional person, one that may make hasty decisions and perhaps repent at leisure. It is time now perhaps to break the bond of detachment and become the real 'you' - the you that you would like to be.
Recently everything seems to have gone wrong and so you are experiencing considerable stress and anxiety due to mental conflict. A continuous case of 'Should I?' or 'Shouldn't I?'. At this particular moment in time you feel as if you have reached the end of your tether and it seems impossible to ever rectify the situation and so you have decided, perhaps quite unrealistically, to postpone making any further decisions. Disappointment and unfulfilled hopes have given rise to despondency. This conflict between hope and necessity is creating considerable pressure. Instead of resolving this by facing up to making the essential decision, you are likely to immerse yourself in the pursuit of trivialities as an escape route.
The tensions that you are trying to cope with are a result of conditions which are really beyond your control. As a consequence of this almost impossible situation and not being able to get your own way, you are subjected to frustration and almost ungovernable anger. You are trying to remedy the situation but the stress that you are experiencing is making the situation even worse. You feel so inadequate that you are not quite sure which way to turn. A good suggestion would to be to try to relieve the stress and anxiety by participating in some very active physical activity which will relieve your tension.
My comments : The above analysis is uncanny and spot on.
