The benefit of experience
 
   
  Over the past one hundred and fifty years, the collective record of human experience concerning the mind has exploded in volumes of material, theories, data and case studies.  
  There are literally millions of pages of interesting information concerning experience of the human mind, behaviour, conditions and analysis.  
  The benefit of psychology  
  The formation of the science of psychology has assisted tremendously in the empirical classification of this information by certain categories and theories.  
  Humanity now knows a great deal about the human mind and human nature. Predictive behaviour modeling has now become a legitimate area of study with sufficient data available to make logical predictions of likely human behaviour under certain events and certain factors.  
  The accumulative experience of psychology has taken great strides towards the treatment of mental illness and conditions, with a much greater understanding as to the motives that drive us all to do what we do.  
  Separating the experience from the theories  
  While it has often been in the pursuit of justifying a certain theory that some of the greatest experience breakthroughs have taken place in terms of the human mind, it is also possible to consider this total experience as separate to the models and theories of psychology.  
  The separation of experience from theories, frees the chains of this wisdom to new light and potential new thinking.
