"Experiencing overwhelming confusion feels like hitting a brick wall. When we focus, we discover it is a thicket through which we can patiently explore the pattern and find our way through." -- ShadowsPub
Focus is not a way to banish confusion. It's a way to patiently explore what's in front of us, find the patterns and start finding a path through the tangle. The path may lead to resolution or it may teach us what we can live with. Focus and stepping forward are key.
It's something I need to focus on these days...
Discovering patterns in our own behaviours, triggers, responses, and choices helps us to discern which ones keep us stuck in overwhelm or regression or limbo, and which ones help us to break through. It really can feel like being in the middle of a thicket while you're trying to navigate your way through! Thoughtful insight, @shadowspub.
