Since Alpha Dog defeated Li Shishi, the top chess player in Weiqi last year, we realized that we could make all kinds of robots instead of lathe workers, locksmiths, hairdressers, drivers, accountants, athletes, poets and writers. Have developed intelligent technology. The above-mentioned occupations that may be eliminated can be described and quantified, and can be completed through digital technology and big data. But robots are designed by programmers, not by robots, so programmers will never be replaced by robots.
So, why won't psychological counselors be replaced by robots? The reason is: tacit knowledge. Counselors are people who work by tacit knowledge. Tacit knowledge is a concept put forward by Polanyi, which refers to knowledge that cannot be completely described. Tacit knowledge is difficult to be accurately described and quantified, so it cannot be digitized by any technical means, and big data is no exception. A good psychological counselor should be familiar not only with psychology, but also with medicine, life science, sociology, philosophy, religion, law, education, success, ethics, hypnosis, logic and other knowledge. What's more, he needs talent, super logical reasoning ability and keen insight into the development of things, all of which cannot be quantified.
In reality, people have many misunderstandings about psychological counseling. One is counseling, which means chatting. Psychological counseling is different from chatting in general. It uses the professional theoretical knowledge of psychology, as well as the knowledge of sociology and medicine, and has a strict and scientific theoretical system and operational process. The second is that psychological counseling can see through your thoughts and know your past and future. After training, psychological counselors have good observation, know the scientific laws of psychological activities and have very objective logical analysis ability, and can judge some subconscious psychological activities, but all this must come from real, objective and comprehensive data. The third is to do psychological counseling to make people laugh. Psychological counseling is one of the best ways to promote people's growth and development, and it is an effective method to prevent psychological barriers. The most basic principles of psychological counseling include "absolute confidentiality".
What is the role of a counselor? It is to help you accurately analyze the situation, give you some reasonable suggestions, help you open your mind, balance your emotions, enhance your self-confidence, help you understand the essence of the problem, negotiate solutions to the problem, and let your nervous mood be relieved and your mentality be balanced. People's psychological problems are often solved on the basis of real problems.
Sometimes your heart is like a desert. What should I do? Draw water, and then find some drought-tolerant plants to plant, attracting lizards, snakes, birds and so on. Although the pace of change is very small, this small ecology will live slowly. With more plants and animals, your heart will change from desert to oasis.
A person must have hope, and a person with hope can live with vigor and motivation. As the saying goes, running water does not rot, and relatives do not rot. Flowing blood, fresh and energetic, easy to be healthy. If the inner world stagnates, diseases will breed.
We can't change others, let alone the world, but we can change ourselves with wisdom through epiphany, so as to adapt to this colorful society.
