WHAT IS CBT ?
“Everything that now exists, no matter how great and good it is, lasts for a time, fulfills a purpose, and then passes on. And so it will be with all the works of art that now exist; an eternal veil of forgetfulness will lie over them, just as there is now over those things that came before.”
- Adalbert Stifter, Indian Summer
LOCOMOTIVE
being towards death is in a way being towards life
the way we view choices
the decisions we take
the actions we commit to
and the inactivity we pursue

EXISTENCE AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF TIME
CBT & EXISTENTIALISM
GRASPING EXISTENTIAL FREEDOM AND POSSIBILITIES CAN HAPPEN ONCE WE GRASP THE SIGNIFICANCE OF DEATH AND OUR FINITUDE.
All of the above demands dealing with other minds who offers FRAME OF REFERENCE as well as contrasting perspectives that the leader needs to sift through in order to engage in decision making and action.
The leading mind has to stagecraft momentum in other minds of own organisation as well as deal with minds in the organisation's ecosystem in a 'match wits' market place
but there are immense APPERCEPTIVE aspects at play, such is the labour of assimilation.
HEADSTRIDE APPROPRIATES ATTENTION TO THESE
APPERCEPTIVE ELEMENTS IN THE MIND THAT
AUGMENT ASSIMILATION
​
HOW THE LEADER
INTERPRETS, PERCEIVES & DECIDES
The core day to day functionality of leadership is leading minds, herald a start and sustain their inspiration towards vision & mission accomplishment and behold excitement at each attainment. It is in a way unfolding of a psychological thriller with a cast of characters in which there is
Influencing, Negotiating, Inspiring, Communicating, Asserting, Delegating, Empowering, Disrupting, Innovating, Problem Solving, Strategising, Planning, Coaching, Mentoring, Walking the Talk
and other aspects of doing and being.
'Those who make the worst use of their time are the first to complain of its brevity.'

WHY DO CLIENTS COME
FOR THERAPY?
Unexpected disruption, chronic conditions, major life upheaval, triggering of past experiences, bereavement, repentant guilt, any of these could either invoke anxiety or could eventuate into anger, fright, obsessions, phobias or depression. Understanding falls away, support system is unhelpful, anti-depressants become ineffective and one’s own coping deserts one. In spite of various self-soothing attempts, addiction, denial, obsessions, suppression and other methods, when the situation becomes untenable, clients seek therapy as a respite.
WHAT DO CLIENTS SEEK FROM THERAPY?
In general, clients feel overpowered by their circumstances and seek support, guidance, reinforcement and a hand to hold on to as they negotiate the bend. Some seek quick symptom fixes, some want to share their struggle with loss (relationship, job, money, health, cause) and some seek deeper analysis of their experiences. A common thread however is their need to get their complex issues contained and regain their ability to cope. Some have a clear idea and seek specific help whilst others, through the explorative characteristic of the therapeutic engagement, stumble upon what is really bothering them.

EXISTENTIAL
COACHING
BEING-TOWARD
Understanding the significance of individual existence, grasping the meaning & absurdities of Being & negotiating the journey into authenticity.
People make sense of an idea by assimilating it to the body of ideas he/she already possesses (past experience) to form a new whole. Every external sensory stimulus goes through an internal classification in the mind and then interpreted which eventuates into experience. At the very inception, as babies, we receive sensory inputs into our mind through sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. We make sense of the world through a process called perception.
As we grow up our brain accumulates immense past information and archives it in memory. New sensory inputs at each stage, as we experience life, is now compared with this past information and then we perceive the world. For example, any new scientific principle is explained based on existing data that is already analysed and classified. If a new chemical element is discovered, it is compared with Mendeleev’s periodic table and positioned as per its atomic number in the new table.
NEW INFORMATION/ STIMULUS IS NOT PERCEIVED, IT IS APPERCEIVED.
HUMAN INTELLIGENCE IS A PRODUCT OF APPERCEPTION
APPERCEPTION IS A MENTAL PROCESS BY WHICH ANY NEW INFORMATION, CONCEPT, THEORY IS COMPARED AND CONTRASTED WITH ALREADY EXISTENT MENTAL CONTENT AND THEREBY CLASSIFIED, EXPLAINED OR UNDERSTOOD.
