PROBLEMS:

~

Frequently, when faced with a problem, we may attempt to solve it in
a particular way. When that way doesn't work, we may continue
trying to solve the problem in that same way.

We may get frustrated, try harder, get more frustrated, and then
exert more energy and influence into forcing the same solution that
we have already tried and that didn't work.

That approach tends to get us stuck and trapped. It is the stuff that
unmanageability is made of.

We can get caught in this same difficult pattern in relationships, in
tasks, in any area of our life. We initiate something, it doesn't work,
doesn't flow, we feel badly, then try the same approach harder, even
though it's not working and flowing.

Sometimes, it's appropriate not to give up and to try harder.
Sometimes, it's more appropriate to let go, detach, and stop trying so
hard.

If it doesn't work, if it doesn't flow, maybe life is trying to tell us
something. Life is a gentle teacher. Something not working may be a
sign!

Let go. If we have become frustrated by repeated efforts that aren't
producing desired results, we may be trying to force ourselves down
the wrong path. Often, the answer will emerge more clearly in the
quietness of letting go than it will in the urgency, frustration, and
desperation of pushing harder.
