"This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth. Dr. William Glasser
Dr. William Glasser was the developer of Reality Therapy and Choice Theory. His ideas focus on personal choice, personal responsibility and personal transformation. He was refreshingly different from the "mainstream'. Glasser was also notable for applying his theories to broader social issues, such as education, management, and marriage, to name a few. Glasser notably deviated from conventional psychiatrists by warning the general public about the potential detriments caused by the profession of psychiatry in its traditional form because of the common goal to diagnose a patient and prescribe medications to treat the particular illness when, in fact, the patient may simply be acting out of unhappiness, not a brain disorder. Glasser advocated the consideration of mental health as a public health issue.
Dr. Glasser teaches us that what we get from people is information. What we do with that information is upto us and determines whether or not we succeed in life..
