It is also a chance to make progress.
The word "love” means accepting our problems.
How do you face the problems in your life
You fear that you will forget everything that you have remembered.
Loving them doesn't mean hiding them.
Unluckily， soon they may get into another similar one.
We all have problems and barriers (障碍)that prevent us from moving into new areas. When meeting with a problem， some turn away and give up because they think it is too hard to solve it. 26 In this way, their lives stay inside the same
old cycles，in which they are unlikely to keep learning and make progress.
While others deal with problems by loving them instead of hating them. 27 The more we deny (否定)a problem, the stronger it seems to become. Only when we accept the fact can we find effective ways to deal with it.
Suppose one of your barriers is taking a final exam. 28 You may
tell yourself "I' m not going to be scared. and then try to force a smile on your face.
However, loving your fear actually works better. You just need to say to yourself,
“ I'm scared. But I' m going to take it anyway. It is not just a problem.
29 ” By that, you welcome your problem and face it in an active way, so
it is possible that you succeed.
It is impossible to live a life without problems. 30 Instead, it means
admitting （承认）the truth about them. This helps us take effective action, which can free us of the problem once and for all.
