Recognition has been defined by Goldstein (2010) as how humans can categorise objects to give them meaning. RBC suggests that our recognition of objects is dependent on dividing the stimulus into a number

A wise man once said‚ “In order to know yourself‚ you have to know those who came before you.” That man didn’t just say those words; he lives by them‚ and I know this because that wise man is my grandfather.

“You are not that special”‚ “Do you want to be thrown into a mental hospital?”‚ “You can’t do anything right” “retard…” Admittedly‚ this is a strange introduction when discussing about possible-selves; seeing that these quotes are highly derogatory. However‚ there is a method to my madness. That is to say‚ in view of the theory about possible selves‚ it brings up the question: if a child could overcome the trauma they endured and achieve success? Concerning my possible self‚ the years of abuse resulted
