When the problem is the teacher
Problems.
They feel disruptive, stressful, and frustrating.
Programming tells us to solve them, fix them, and ultimately get rid of them.
What if we looked through a different lens and considered their greater purpose?
The problems around us often shed light on the conflicts within us.
Rather than get rid of them, we could inquire “What do you want me to learn? How do you want me to grow?”
It’s less about eliminating problems, and more about embracing what they’re trying to teach us.
