“The part of our life we don't like, our problems, why would we keep a problem? We're all capable of solving it, why would we keep a problem? The only reason you have a problem that's stuck around is because it meets some of your needs. Not all of them, or you wouldn't want to get rid of it, but enough of them that makes it hard to give up.”
