Dealing with a stressful situation whether personal or professional can either stop you in your tracks or propel you into action. It's important to take a step back from the situation to identify the problem and then come up with an action plan for the steps you are going to take. I think it's easier to just go along without addressing the problem but it takes strength to actually do something about it.
Once I identify a problem I find it helpful to think back to a time when a similar situation occurred and how I resolved that problem. Another way is to speak with a trusted friend or to read a book or article on the subject. The important thing is to take action. You'd be surprised how even small steps lead to complete resolution of the problem.

I'm learning that the best way for me to deal w/ a problem is to figure out what outcome I want and then break it down into little steps to reach that outcome.
