Principle 1: Structuring meaning

Principle 2: Configuring rhythmical patterns

Principle 3: Cotranscending with possibles

3 Principles of the Human Becoming Theory

Principle 1: Structuring Meaning

One of the principles of the Human Becoming Theory; proposes that persons’ structure, or choose, the meaning of their realities and this choosing happens with explicit-tacit knowing

States the way people see the world, their imaging of it, is their reality and they create this reality illimitably with others and they show or language their reality in the ways they speak and remain silent and in the ways they move and stay still

1. Imaging

2. Valuing

3. Languaging

3 Concepts of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning

Imaging

One of the concepts of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning; the an individual’s view of reality, which is the shaping of personal knowledge in explicit and tacit ways

Explicit-Tacit & Reflective-Prereflective

2 Paradoxes of Imaging (concept of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning)

Explicit-Tacit

One of the Paradoxes of Imaging (concept of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning); imaging that can be easily seen/understood OR imaging having a hidden perspective, being difficult to see or understand

Reflective-Prereflective

One of the Paradoxes of Imaging (concept of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning); either the current situation that is really showing or the past situation/experience about this reality

Valuing

One of the concepts of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning; what we value the most

Confirming-Not Confirming

Paradox of Valuing (concept of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning); how persons confirm and do not confirm beliefs in light of a personal perspective or worldview

Languaging

One of the concepts of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning; what one is communicating (can be through facial expressions, words)

Speaking-Being Silent & Moving-Being Still

2 paradoxes of Languaging (concept of Principle 1: Structuring Meaning)

Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns

One of the principles of the Human Becoming Theory; human beings create patterns in day-to-day life and the patterns tell about personal meanings and values

In the patterns of relating that people create, many freedoms and restrictions surface with choices; all patterns involve complex engagements and disengagements with people, ideas, and preferences

Revealing-Concealing, Enabling-Limiting, Connecting-Separating

3 Concepts of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns

Revealing-Concealing

One of the concepts of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns; has the disclosing-not disclosing paradox

Disclosing-Not Disclosing

Paradox of the Revealing-Concealing Concept (one of the concepts of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns); every time one languages, there is always a chance they are not sharing everything

Enabling-Limiting

One of the concepts of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns; has the potentiating-restricting paradox

Potentiating-Restricting

Paradox of the Enabling-Limiting concept; factors that can potentiate or restrict the client’s behaviors or languaging

Connecting-Separating

One of the concepts of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns; has the attending-distancing paradox

Attending-Distancing

Paradox of Connecting-Separating (concept of Principle 2: Configuring Rhythmical Patterns); knowing when to enter and understand the relationship between the client and what is going on

Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles

One of the Principles of the Human Becoming Theory; persons continuously change and unfold in life as they engage with and choose from infinite possibilities about how to be, what attitude or approach to have, whom to relate with, and what interests or concerns to explore

Their choices reflect the persons’ ways of moving and changing in the process of becoming

Powering, Originating, Transforming

3 Concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles

Powering

One of the concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles; the will or motivating to go on despite of hardships

Pushing-Resisting, Affirming-Not Affirming, Being-Nonbeing

3 Paradoxes of Powering (under concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles)

Originality

One of the concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles; based on the human desire to conform with society, while maintaining uniqueness

Certainty-Uncertainty & Conforming-Not Conforming

2 Paradoxes of Originating (under Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles)

Transforming

One of the concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles; has the familiar-unfamiliar paradox

Familiar-Unfamiliar

Paradox of Transforming (concepts of Principle 3: Cotranscending with Possibles); being able to transcend
