Center Yourself First
Those problems! Does it ever seem that they can take on lives of their own? They can seem so out of whack, so out of harmony, that we wonder what it will take to even start to get them under control. Breathless, we forge ahead bungling our initial efforts and creating a spinning circle of frustration.
Unless.
Unless we first center ourselves. Unless we are already balanced, focused, breathing individuals. Ready for this challenge because we are simply ready. Confident. Quiet. Calm. Centered.
Center yourself first.
Solving problems without a centered self may lead to complications.
You're first on that list.

Go Ahead
Have you ever tried to solve a problem but kept holding yourself back? I've done that too many times to count, and it doesn't count for anything. It doesn't work.
Feeling insecure will not make me more secure. Let it go. Open up more possibilities.
The magic, the answer, the solution is in the possibilities.
