We all have
problems and barriers (障碍) that prevent us from moving into new areas. When someone meets the
problem which he can't get over, he usually turns away and starts walking along
a different path. Unluckily, soon he may get into another similar one. In this
way, his life stays inside the same old cycles, in which he is unlikely to make
progress or keep learning.
While others deal
with problems by loving them instead of hating them. The word" love"
means accepting your problems. The more we deny (否定) a problem, the stronger it seems to become. Only when we accept
the fact can we find the useful ways to deal with it.
Suppose one of
your barriers is taking a final exam. You fear that you will forget everything
that you have remembered. One way of dealing with it is to pretend (假装) that you are not afraid—tell yourself "
I'm not going to be scared "and then try to force a smile on your face.
But compared with
that, loving your fear actually works better. You just need to say to
yourself," I'm scared. But I'm going to take it easy. It is not only a
problem, but also a chance for me to make progress. "By doing that, you
allow yourself to be afraid and you can have a right understanding to your
problem. You welcome your problem and face it in an active way. So there's no
doubt that you are more likely to overcome it completely.
It is impossible
to live a life without problems. Loving them doesn't mean hiding them. Instead,
it means admitting the truth about them. This helps us take effective (有效的) actions, which can free us from the problems
once and for all.
