When you see only one, learn to look for the second.When you're stuck between two, learn to be the third.
When you're cycling around three, learn to see them as one.
Last night, I re-wrote it as a dialogue:
A Contrarian’s Guide to being a Therapist
Client: See, I’m dealing with this one thing--
Therapist: That’s important, but what is it connected to? What’s the second thing?
C: Fine, they’re these two things I’m stuck between--
T: You gotta get out of binary thinking! There must be more than two.
C: OK, I got all sorts of things I’m dealing with--!
T: Can’t you see that all of those are one big thing?
