Some Problems are Actually Solutions!

Quite often, we run from the problems, while there are times when we put our energy into solving them as soon as possible. Today, I realised that sometimes, it's better to delay solving a problem especially because that problem might be a minor distraction to keep us away from the bigger problems and instead of trying to solve that minor problem immediately, it's alright to face some consequences for not dealing with it as such consequences might result in something fruitful.

It still makes me laugh to realise how big that problem appeared to me two days ago and I immediately wanted to deal with it but somehow when I solved that problem today, right in the next moment, I felt, "Oh God! I wish I didn't solve that problem that quick."

It doesn't matter what problem I am talking about here, what matters is that sometimes, it's better to look at the bigger picture and keep yourself away from taking some petty problems too seriously.

This reminds me of a quote by Winston Churchill, "You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks."
