Statement of the Problem ©1998 NICOLEA
a) What explanation do you have for not fully achieving your goal with excellence? Try to express as best you can the reasons you give yourself for this failure. Find the words that can best express it for this explanation will be your Statement of the Problem.
b) Is there an attitude or an image that seems to accompany your explanation, adding an emotional aspect to it? If so, add it to your statement.
c) As you give this account is there a sense that you are scolding yourself, blaming yourself, condemning yourself or others? Try to describe this “sense” and consider it as an addition to your problem statement.
d) Again, as you give this account, is there some tension you experience? If so, where in your body do you experience it?
e) What is it like? Would you please describe it?
f) Have you felt this sensation before? When? Describe it. Perhaps it is a common sensation whenever you experience tension.
May we preserve these philosophical beauties, and exhibit them to others. May this web site expand their elegance by the enlivening rays of the philosophic fire; and by the powerful breath of genius, scatter abroad in this virtual world these latent but copious seeds.
If some sparks of this celestial fire shall animate the reader, consider yourself as well rewarded for this laborious undertaking. Ancient philosophy has been, for centuries, the only study to break the shackles of ignorance; and in which one finds an inexhaustible treasure of intellectual wealth, and a perpetual fountain of wisdom and delight.
Presuming that such a pursuit bestows the highest benefit, I, Webmistress, desire no other reward than the wealth of wisdom, and Reason as my constant Guide. If successful, may I see the praise of the liberal; and if not, I expect no defense for failure, other than the decision of the candid, and discerning few, thus the opportunity to learn, and purgation by philosophic fire.
