Thnk: are you seeking a solution or just attention?
Let’s face it, problems are inevitable. We all face them—small or large, personal or professional. Naturally, when faced with challenges, we turn to others for support and guidance. However, there’s a fine line between seeking help and seeking attention. If you find yourself discussing the same problem with more than three people, it might be time to ask yourself whether you're truly seeking a solution or if you might be seeking validation.

Reflect on your recent conversations and ask yourself if you're seeking a solution or just an outlet. The choice to engage in self-reflection and seek positive change lies within you. Your future self will thank you for it.
