Created Problems

Through the way the mind becomes conditioned, problems are created so the mind has something to do, and because of this creating problems becomes constant…

The issue with having to constantly solve problems to arrange life to be a certain way is the problems are all created. Even if one makes up a story that life is exactly how you want it, the mind begins creating a new problem almost immediately. Life is continuous, it’s broken up into segments (created problems) by a mind that’s in a constant state of agitation. If this wasn’t true you would see life as complete and your mind wouldn’t constantly need life to be arranged to your liking. It isn’t because of anything right or wrong that makes the mind see things in this way, it’s because the mind has been trained to create problems so it’s only doing what it’s been trained to do.

The Conditioned Mind sees created problems all over the place. The shortest line in the store, politics, religion, work, diets, and on an on, all this is strictly done to create another problem; your mind tells you solving it will make life perfect. Let’s say everyday you create one new problem to solve, that would mean you create roughly 21,000 problems; this is done to constantly have life the way you think it should be. After all, nobody purposely gets in the longest line at the store, but if you did nothing would really change except for maybe not creating another problem…
