I Don't Want Anything. Why Have We Stopped Understanding What We Want and Enjoying Life on the Way to Our Goals

When a person cannot realize their desires or does not derive joy from the process, it is not about laziness or motivation. It is a way for the psyche to protect against pain, disappointment, and internal conflict. Therefore, neither goal marathons nor desire maps work. Yulia Pirumova, a practicing psychotherapist, popular psy-blogger, and author of the bestseller "Fragile People," has created a guide to the landscape of desires. In it, she explains why the psyche has blocked the very mechanism of "wanting" and how to start moving towards what we desire.
