Problems, unless tackled with tenacity head-on will not disappear on its own.

We all know someone in our office or social circle, who are unlikely to stick around when things get tough. Problems will show up.

Bad days will happen. And it comes it different forms – causing struggle with health, money, relationships, friendships, or work.

Refusing to deal with the issue provides temporary numbness until reality sets in.

The further we run, the harder it becomes to find our way back home.
