We don t solve our problems, we outgrow them. As I 've been thinking about this the past few days, I realize how often my attention is actually on solving my problems, not outgrowing them.
There are times when change ,moving to a new city or a new home, or changing careers is the right thing at the right time. But there are also times when the urge for change is really just a desire to run away from problems that need to be faced rather than avoided.
We also experience this phenomenon whenever something intense happens in our life whether it's something that is intensely good or bad. Major life experiences often put everything in perspective giving us an opportunity to stop and re-evaluate many aspects of our lives. Usually, upon further reflection, we realize that most of our problems are not that big to deal.
A few things we can think about as we look to deepen our growth and shift away from the obsessive problem solving mode many of us find ourselves may be we are not speaking and analyzing the problems with others by telling them that it the biggest problem get support and guidance to solve it .Any pain involved in facing our issues is well worth the effort in the end. When we face our problems instead of avoiding them, we free our energy and transform ourselves from people who run away into people who move enthusiastically forward.
