“Where there’s no thought, there’s no problem. It’s the story that we believe, prior to investigation, that leaves us confused.”
~ Byron Katie, Loving What Is
Confusion can be frustrating, can’t it? Oftentimes it makes us feel stupid. And no one wants to feel stupid. But, you know what, my friend?
Confusion comes one step before we learn something new. That’s just the way our brains work. As soon as our brains sort something out and can classify it, our brains will file it away appropriately. End of confusion.
So, you see, it’s just a part of the process of learning. A positive part at that. If you feel confused, there’s still something more for you to learn. Admit to yourself and maybe others, “Wait. I’m confused. What am I missing here?” And expect the answer to be right around the corner.
