Do you think it is easier to ignore your problems, or to face them?
Why do we ignore our problems?
Has a problem you've ignored ever worked itself out?
Does procrastination have anything to do with it, or fear?
Where did you learn how to deal with your problem or from whom?

Basically the longer you hold on to a problem and stew over it, the worst it becomes in your mind. Kind of making a mountain over a mole hill.What a weight off of the shoulders once it is behind you. It always amazes me that as humans we prefer to walk around with so much unnecessary stress. We worry and stress and imagine all these terrible scenarios when once we deal with it, it was basically a hiccup.Although at times through our procrastination the problem does get a little more difficult to deal with or costs us more time or money to untangle. No wonder we all complain about our health and look like we have been dragged through a chipper. Whats the point I say...but yet...here we go again.

A lot of good answers thanks everyone, this is a big problem for many people. Any advice on how to hit a problem head on? What do you do when hit with a big problem?
t.u. Pam, I agree with you that it's better, I just seem to procrastinate the thing I believe are going to be extremely difficult.
Sometimes once I finally get around to facing the problem it just works out so easily, "I wondered what I was thinking." That worked out so easily, it seemed like such a huge thing, that's it? Many times we make problems bigger in our heads than they are in reality.

without doubt it much easier to ignor them, but that does not make them go away. ...problems "let he's witout sin cast the first stone" meaning we all got problems ,lets turn it into a challenge, then we got at least we got a quest! why avoid reality ! it takes a bigger man/women to rise to the challenge than to avoid it!!!

Well I suppose we all tend to procrastinate, but that being said, if one wishes to act like an Ostrich in other words stick their head in the sand when problems arise and all hell is breaking loose above ground just because one has their head in the sand and does not see it does not make it go away or make it not be happening and solves nothing. So I say do the best you can to deal with it head on.

According to Scripture, you are not supposed to let the sun go down on your anger.
In other words, if we let something bother us and it eats at us all day, by saying nothing and going to bed, the thing manifests itself in our dreams. The state of the matter is expounded upon in the spirit and makes sleeping hard to do. These often become nightmares.
Confront the thing and come to terms. Sometimes, things get worse the longer you wait; like a cancer if caught early, can be treated quickly.

Keep up the good work DH, You are a bright intelligent young person, I like your answers and can tell you have a passion for life, don't ever change... Be careful of your expectations in life, that can be the biggest disappointment in life when you are creative and a dreamer.
I am artistic, creative, and had big dreams of success when I was your age. Being that I have had some success, but lost everything a few times, it has brought me into serious depression a few times. So when life and other people don't meet your expectations, it can be crushing at times.
Hope you will keep this in mind, that failure is a part of life, and it doesn't mean to stop trying. Look at how many times Thomas Edison attempted to make a light bulb before he succeeded. Good luck, keep up the great attitude, I hope you do well in life, it's tough out there.

YEp, failures will come of course, but that can only make me appreciate victory even more ;)
if i come upon a big problem, i escape.
Nope, not the escape your thinking about.
i escape in my mind!
i close my eyes
i'm in a forest
suddenly i find two trees connected to each other like a huge gate
as i come closer it becomes surreal
curiosity hits in
i'm passing in between them
then a force hit's in hard and i'm on a completely different realm
guess what, it's a fairy realm
all these different creatures, ugly yet beautiful walk around
as i ask around they direct me to the queen
she's the queen faery who knows everything and can do anything
then i bow down in respect
she asks me what i need
i represent to her my problem in the human world
she tells me to write it down with a unique quill feather on a piece of magic paper
i write down the problem
then she throws the paper to a servant creature
the servant creature, me and the queen all walk to a garden
the servant digs the ground then buries the paper.
he throws soil at it and the paper is treated as if it's dead
the queen asks 'do you want to know why i did that'
i say yes, she continues 'like everything in your human world, it ends, it dies'
'everything disappears one day, in the end nothing matters, because it dies'
'you see your problem might seem big, might have great consequences for the choices you make, but in the end you got to understand , it ends, One day you have a black and white day and everything seems to be going wrong, then one day you have a colourful day, full of bright ideas and new beginnings, a problem is just like a human life, one day it exists, one day it doesn't, it's as simple as that'.
then kaboom i'm back to reality ,
open my eyes
face the problem with the most perfect mind
and solve it with the best outcome i could achieve.
it eliminates every despair i had when i had first encountered the conflict, it turns my results way around.
I can't live without imagination, it takes me a whole hour to go through what i just described, you can't rush your mind, you need to slow down and think of EVERY detail that comes within the story, it won't work if you rush it.
:D
