When you focus on the problem not the solution, our minds get stuck and go round in circles, eventually the problem grows in our mind and seems bigger than ever.
A simple way to overcome this is to think about solutions, ask yourself 'how can I' - overcome this problem, get out of this situation, reach my goal.
The unconscious mind is a fantastic problem solver, it does this for us every day, so when we ask a question like 'how can I' it gives the unconscious mind a focus and we will notice ways out of the situation - options will float up to the conscious part of our mind and help us.
Focussing on solutions also helps us remain confidence in our abilities and feeling positive and optimistic about ourselves and our lives.
