The world forgets that Freud didn’t have a PhD/MSc in Psychology, and neither did your wise old aunty, but that doesn’t mean she wasn’t great at helping you change your perspective, nor does it mean that she wasn’t a fantastic motivational source! Psychology is still a young discipline compared to chemistry and physics.
Food for thought:
Socrates did not have a degree in Philosophy
Michael Jordan doesn’t have a BA in Basketball
Jimi Hendrix did not have an MA in Guitar Playing
Steve Jobs did not have a PGCert in Entrepreneurship
Jesus did not have a dual-PhD in theology and evangelism
All are phenomenal at what they do though.
