Find a Way Through, Not Out

There's a simple motto I've been telling myself.  It seems to work for short term challenges. It is simply that, instead of trying to find a way to escape the piece of responsibility in front of me, I should find  a way through it.  Through is almost always equivalent to less energy expended anyway.  And at the end, I've got something, some product of some sort. And that's more than the relief I get (and increased stress) from avoiding it.  Sure it is basic, but that's okay.
