5. I can avoid dealing with problems or pain in life. While you can postpone addressing difficulties and pain in life, you cannot avoid tough times indefinitely. Accepting them and dealing with problems and emotions directly allows you to put them behind you. Avoiding emotions is rarely effective for the long term. It’s not possible to fully enjoy positive feelings when you have denied negative feelings. It is the failure to acknowledge an emotion that will wreak havoc on your life. I’m not suggesting that you walk into your boss’s office and engage in a form of emotional exhibitionism. Carefully choose the right time and place. Remember, the emotion is signaling an unmet need that needs to be addressed. Denying the emotion is ignoring the problem. You have a choice. You can deal with it consciously on your terms, or you can wait for it to surprise you when your body can’t take it anymore. (In a previous chapter, I described how stress has the potential to derail your immune system and weaken your heart.)
