How Many Layers Can You Find?

Solving a problem can be a complicated task that requires a full understanding of what its cause is. All too often we respond to what we see presented before us rather than taking the time and making the effort to find out what its root cause is. Like an onion, that may require digging down through all of the layers that life has added to the problem. Dealing with any of these layers, and not the root cause, will only frustrate your effort and drain your creative energy. So, the next time you get ready to provide your guidance, ask yourself, “have I really peeled away all of the layers?”
