The Promise Of Your Problems

What determines your direction is your state of being.

If you are submersed in unexamined thought, you mistake the “problem” as threatening, or as an obstacle. This creates resistance and a feel-bad experience. 

Stay present, outside of any mental stories, and take a second look at the situation.

Ask questions

Ask questions, then wait in silence for the answer to emerge independently from within. The mind must wait for the gut to answer. The questions are to be weighed in the body, not the mind.

  • What is this “problem” trying to tell me?

  • Is it moving me toward a new course?

  • Is it trying to get me to acknowledge what is true for me, and to move toward honoring that?

  • What else is true about the situation that I am omitting, overlooking or denying?

  • What role do I play in it?

  • What can I learn?

When you realize, not reason, the answers to some of these questions, the problem transforms itself. Once you get its message, you no longer need the problem.
