The disputes the paper deals with concerned the adherents of intuitive realism, which defended the epistemological position of direct cognition, and those philosophers, who enforced the position of critical realism. The attention is paid especially to the views and the attitudes of Igor Hrusovsky, which articulated in his polemics with the intuitive realists. According to the authoress Jozef Dieska overestimated so called 'intuitivist turn' in philosophy as well as the importance of the conception of N. O. Losski, making at the same time too many concessions to the scientific achievements and the understanding of scientism of that time. For Hrusovsky as an adherent of scientism, however, the science and philosophy were almost identical.

The paper gives an analysis of the experience of potentiality in the temporal and spatial perspectives of human life. It also examines the interconnections of these perspectives. Both of them are substantial for philosophical counseling, which, according to the authoress, could be of help in balancing the two in people with related problems. Attention is paid also to potentiality in its relation to the idea of good life end the meaning of the latter for human life. The experience of freedom is closely connected with the experience of potentiality up to the last moments of life. This experience is related not only to the presence and future, but it also could (and in some cases even has to) look into the past. The description of some forms of achieved pseudo-freedom serves the further objective of the paper: the discrimination of the problems, which could be addressed by philosophical counseling.

The paper deals with the ever growing fragmentation of our self-determination, which is due to the atomizing of human activities. This leads to the difficulties in our being integrated into the continuum in life practices. The connections between psychological and sociological aspects of identity and a particular conception of values, especially that of the values of a person, and good life is questioned. The question is, if in the conditions of plurality of values, the ideas of identity, continuity and coherent personal identity are plausible at all. We witness a destructive influence of contemporary culture upon the narrative structures of our lives and their narrative cores, i.e. our 'Selves'.

The paper is a continuation of the authoress' previous researches in the problematic of human nature and cultural identity, which led her to more basic questions concerning human life, its value frame and its shifts with time, which we witness today. According to her the idea of a 'good life' embodies psychological as well as ethical and aesthetical priorities. It is these priorities in younger generation that the authoress decided to focus on. She argues that the more liberal approaches to life and avoiding the firmly established rules are closely connected with the desire of success and the parallel diminishing of ethical standards. She is also interested in the form of these processes (private self-improvement, focusing on achievements bringing behavior, enjoying pleasures as dominating trends) in our country as well as in the degree of creative approach to life and the possible ideal of authenticity.

'Flexibility' becomes today the fundamental challenge of a life. The period of immaturity and a young man/woman without any consistent system of the values and the fixed priorities become the demand of our times, something that is expected. Due to the influence of the ideal of flexibility the cult of juvenility causes a specific polarization among young people. On one pole there are the ambitious individuals, which in their desires of a success and the high living standards see themselves as unrestraint by any traditional values or the ethical canons. On the other pole there are those rootless young people boycotting the world of money and commercial show, who, veiled by a nihilistic film of mist, are wandering throughout the world. Very often they become victims of various forms of addiction. While the first 'are surfing on the waves of demand', the latter 'are surfing in the wind'. And what is in between? It is the authoress' hope, that there are the most numerous groups, which aim at an authentic life conception and its fulfillment with the things and relationships having a far deeper meaning then that of virtuous creations or balancing on popular 'board made of laminate'.

The paper offers a discussion on the views of intuitive realists on the philosophy of psychology, which the authoress sees as related to their respective philosophical conceptions. According to the authoress there were no responses to the intuitivist interpretation of the psychic phenomena from the side of the psychologists of that time. The responses came, however, from the philosophers S. Felber and I. Hrusovsky, who criticized the views of O. Losskij and J. Dieska immediately after their being published. The psychology of intuitive realism is voluntarist, closely related to Losskij's ontology.
