"Un cierto grado de neurosis tiene un valor inestimable como impulso, especialmente para un psicólogo."
— Sigmund Freud
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, having a bit of nervousness or anxiety can be very helpful, especially for people who study the mind, like psychologists. Think of a student who worries a lot about their exams. This worry pushes them to study hard and learn a lot, which helps them do well. In the same way, a psychologist who not only studies anxiety but also feels it themselves can understand their patients better. For example, if a doctor has experienced stress or fear, they might be more compassionate and able to help others who are dealing with the same issues. They can use their own feelings to motivate their work and help others find solutions. This can make them excellent at their job because they are driven by personal experience as well as professional knowledge. So, a bit of nervous energy can push people to work harder and be more understanding in their careers.
