I spent more than half my life trying to solve a problem I wasn't fully aware of; I used to change jobs very frequently, it's rare that I even have the same job for longer than three months, I lose interest faster than anyone else.
I thought that maybe I just have more interests than most people, and that maybe I'm still discovering myself; what works for me and what doesn't, but it cost me a lot of time trying to search for this one job that will finally work for me.
The reason why I couldn't solve this problem is; I never knew what the real problem was, and when I did my life changed drastically to the better.
My problem was; indecisiveness and perfectionism: always seeking the best possible option, and always worrying that I might choose something and then realize that there is something better, but when I stated my problem clearly; I started finding solutions to it.
As the quote says:
"A problem well stated is half solved"
I couldn't agree more with this quote, just when you are fully aware of your problem is, and not just the symptoms of the problem but rather the root of the problem (where it arises from) you start finding long-term solutions to your problem rather than the temporary ones.
If you maybe have this same problem of indecisiveness or perfectionism, write me a comment and I'll make sure to write an article about it and mention you.
