Spend Some Time on Searching for Answers
Sometimes we have to take a time-out for learning something new or something in more depth. It’s the way to problem-solve.
Do you ever run into a problem and you feel stunned as if you have smacked into a brick wall? For a while you can’t get the gears going in your mind, so you just sit (or lie) there and feel your pain, right?
That’s when it is easiest to give up and say, “I can’t do that! I quit!”
We do need a bit of time to catch our breath, but then when the pain has numbed to a dull roar, it’s time to get up, dust ourselves off, and say, “I’m going to find out why that happened.” Or, “So that way doesn’t work; what other options are out there?”
I’ve just spent an hour or more, trying to find out why my newest version of Firefox won’t install on the Start Menu. I didn’t really hit a brick wall, because I found a round-about way to make it come to life, but I just got to thinking, ‘There has to be a way to make this work!’ I haven’t found the solution yet, but I learned to understand the problem in greater depth. When I can give more time to it, I WILL solve the problem.
