As I’ve watched the video, Psychology is never about reading people’s minds but it is all

about studying behaviors and how we study mental processes. Psychology is also the study of
emotions, awareness of one’s surroundings, and habits. With the video, there are four goals
(describe, explain, predict, and control) which can help each one of us to become better. To be a
psychologist, you have to think as a psychologist. I honestly don’t know why I ended up
choosing psychology because I know to myself that I'm not capable of doing things that
psychologists can do. But growing up, I've learned to appreciate listening to people's issues and
struggles and doing my best to help them as a result of this being my reality. Analyzing people,
understanding what they are going through, and trying my best to help them are some of the
components of psychology that I find most interesting. I chose psychology not just to help other
people but also to help myself. Another thing that I've learned in the video, part of studying
psychology is to know how to analyze facts and opinions; to know the differences that can help
as a guide with the said information. Watching these videos also questioned myself on how our
brain work, how they can be healed, why we behave the way we do even when we don’t want to,
and what it means to be thinking and feeling alive. In addition, well-known psychological
researchers published psychology textbooks including Freud who went to publish over 20 more
books and countless papers. Theories that are made by these people are very useful especially for
someone like me who’s just learning and studying about psychology. To sum up, studying
psychology may be hard but I know I will learn how to understand other people more, their
behaviors and thinking. I know that psychology will help me and other people to find out the
whys and whats in our minds.
