Facing the things that bother you is like fixing a leaky roof before it causes more damage. Imagine you have a problem or a challenge in your life, but you pretend it's not there or ignore it. That's like pretending the leak in your roof will fix itself. But, just like the leak can get worse and damage your home, avoiding your problems can make them grow bigger and more challenging to deal with.
Think of it this way: if you have a disagreement with someone, avoiding the issue won't make it go away. It might even make the problem worse because it can lead to misunderstandings and hurt feelings. To make things better, you need to talk about it and find a solution. Similarly, in life, when you face your problems and challenges head-on, you have a better chance of finding solutions and making positive changes.
So, remember, you can't change what you refuse to confront. By acknowledging your problems and challenges and taking steps to address them, you have the power to make your life better and more manageable. It's like taking control of your own ship and steering it in the right direction instead of letting it drift aimlessly.
