Do you ever hide from yourself?
That might sound silly, but I think I've done it. We hide from ourselves when there is something about a problem that we need to solve that is really more about the choices we make that what is happening to us. In other words, sometimes we cause our own problems.
We break our own diets. We ignore our own exercise regimen. We avoid the people on our team we most need to talk with. We keep conversations light that need to go much, much deeper.
We don't do these things all the time, but when we do, they contribute to (and even cause) the problems in front of us.
To solve our toughest problems we must be willing to face our own hidden truths.
What kind of hidden truths? That's up to you.
