involve a complete stranger
There were five or ten people who wanted to know what my background was to provide guidance on everything, and I told them I work as a photographer and that I had no precondition apart from a desire to try, together with the person seeking advice, to become more aware of how his or her problem could be solved. Furthermore, I said, my experience was that people often know what is wrong in their lives and that simple questions from an outsider can help provide clarity in relation to the problem.
