Don't be embarrassed to ask for help. You'll be amazed at the doors it opens.

Sonishka Rigicovicosa, one of Montreal's great therapists, tells the story of when she was visiting Israel

and got into a fight with the telephone operator.

She lost her cool.

"What's the matter with you, you're stupid or something?"

And hung up.

Sonishka's inner voice started talking to her.

"What's the matter with you, Sonishka. You're a therapist. You should know better. Phone her back."

Sonishka was one of Montreal's great therapists. One thing she knew. You listen to your inner voice.

"Hello, This is Sonishka. Can you help me?"

The telephone operator burst out in a voice so loud you could here her across the street.

"Help you? Help You? Of course I can help you!"
