A few people have privately messaged me asking how to solve their problems, and each time I gave them a clear path. But later, they came back to me with the same problem and the same emotional state. In reality, they weren’t trying to solve the problem—they were essentially venting emotions and seeking validation for staying in their current situation. So the advice I give most likely won’t turn into action; it’ll only become material for the next round of complaints. Change never happens in the answer—it happens outside the question. In other words, the real difference isn’t about “having an answer” or not—it’s about “being ready to change.” Sometimes it also becomes clearer that not all predicaments can be resolved through conversation—some people are trapped by the structure of their reality over the long term, not by a lack of information.
