We have more strength than we know. Milton Erickson always focused on what we can do than focus on what we can’t do. He reminded his subjects to tap into their own resources. He observed that we can do what we want to do if we focus and concentrate on one idea that can make a difference. He believed that the past can only be educational that can’t be changed. He always reoriented his subject to the future. He also enjoyed using humor, because he thought we shouldn’t take life so seriously. He took every opportunity to learn something new. He was never tired of learning. Through his bouts with polio, he never took life for granted, but encouraged his subjects to celebrate life and to accept the reality as is. He was an action man because he knew from his experience that action is really the only way to go, if we want to learn something new that we can use for the rest of our lives and to enrich our lives.
