Life is difficult, and the goal is not to live an easy problem-free life, but to learn to face the adversities of life and engage with it. Often when we get overwhelmed we either try to avoid our problems, overthink them, or just simply feel stuck. It can be so frustrating when we have dreams and desires, but feel hijacked by our emotions, have trouble focusing, or find ourselves in repetitive patterns that no longer serve us.
