Alfred Adler
We are not determined by our experiences, but are self-determined by the meaning we give to them and when we take particular experiences as the basis for our future life, we are almost certain to be misguided to some degree. Meanings are not determined by situations. We determine ourselves by the meanings we ascribe to situations.
Alfred Adler

Alfred Adler

Alfred Adler
Every pampered child becomes a hated child.... There is no greater evil than the pampering of children.

Alfred Adler
If you wish to educate a child who has gone wrong, then you must, above all, keep your attention fixed on the intersection of two charmed circles.
Alfred Adler
All failures are so because they lack social interest.
Alfred Adler
The self-bound individual always forgets that his self would be safeguarded better and automatically the more he prepares himself for the welfare of mankind, and that in this respect no limits are set for him.
Alfred Adler

Alfred Adler
Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. Trust movement.
Alfred Adler
To all those who walk the path of human cooperation war must appear loathsome and inhuman.
Alfred Adler
