Ep# 73: Fix For When Your Search for Answers Cause More Problems

Sometimes our search for answers can reveal more problems instead of answers. Dr. Kashey teaches us how to stop this problematic spiral and redirect our focus so that we can find answers. While finding the root of the problem seems to be widely accepted advice, Dr. Kashey argues that digging into the past may actually hinder us from facing the problem in the present in addition to giving an excuse for procrastination. Touching on a previous episode with Dr. Kashey, self-esteem could be another obstacle to solving problems. If too much is expected of ourselves, i.e. if we expect perfection, then it can be tempting to believe that the outcome or reason for a problem defines an individual’s self-worth. This is an unfair concept to put upon yourself and others. There is hope in the world of problem-solving, and Dr. Kashey is excited to fuel your cognitive-grinder and create systematic, rational, and constructive solutions.
