Yes, there are a lot of problems in the world. And the media is happy to share them with you. One of the most deceptively easy ways to start feeling bad about things is to start focusing on all these problems -- and/or your own -- without putting in quality time to focus on solutions and ultimately taking action. The chances of miraculously solving all of your own or the worlds problems by focusing on how bad they make you feel are next to none. Casually or subconsciously focusing on problems is one of the quickest ways to feel overwhelmed -- and many times you wont even realize why you suddenly feel miserable, only that you do. If youre not willing and able to commit to acting on and taking steps to change something for the better, then simply acknowledge your negative thoughts for the time being and move on to something more productive, more positive, more empowering. Especially if youre prone to depression. It is totally ok not to start a project when you dont have the strength, focus, or tools needed to complete it. Gather your tools and the right mindset, and have a strategy. Then you can tackle your problems with intention. And if you ever find yourself stuck having to take action, and you have neither the tools or the strength necessary to do it, then reach out to someone who at least has the potential to help you. There are always people out there willing to help you in any way they can. Even when they, too, have their own problems. One of the greatest ways to feel empowered and valuable is to find a way to help someone else. And by doing so, you might just find someone willing and able to help you solve your own problems. Or together, problems you werent capable of solving alone. Synergy is a wonderful thing.
