You are very goal directed. I was too.

I often complained to T that there was no plan. She insisted that there is a plan. "Well it doesn't look like a plan to me!" And it still doesn't.

From your perspective and mine, therapy is essentially planless. You wander around your psyche hoping to find something significant and helpful. It's a lolly scramble and a goldrush. To the organised mind, it is a complete shambles. Even those who practice it don't really understand why it works.
