fight the urge to run when things get difficult

so i think the first step for this goal is to be able to decide when things are difficult and when things are impossible.
im thinking about removing this goal from my list – ive held on too long to a situation because i didnt want to just give up when things were “hard”
when really things were impossible and were never going to get better. or at least not in the forseeable furture and hanging on as long as i did only made me miserable.
i dont see the point of hanging on just to hang on and not rid yourself of something. sometimes its just time to move on.
so i guess for now ill keep this goal – but i dont know for how much longer.
anyone want to try and convince me otherwise?

This has always been a tough one for me. I have anxiety issues and trust issues. So running has always seemed like the best option. But this time I didn’t run, even though I really felt I had to. I thought he didn’t love me anymore, so I thought that running away from the relationship would help make that pain go away. I withdrew from him and gaurded myself. But I stayed. And now I am so happy I did. :)

but I’m better at it, thanks in large part to a partner who is understanding and forgiving.

ive come to the conclusion that i am completely uncertain what this means.
i am in a very difficult situation right now. and to exit the situation is one option.
what exactly are these “things” that get difficult. i don’t understand what i’m supposed to do.
i think perhaps this goal needs to be a bit more specific.

It’s temptations that make things become difficult. Indeed I don’t lack the necessary courage to handle stuff or solve the problems myself. But the inward needs of finding a right balance is the thing I need to fight.

...I can keep myself from running away:)

This is also sometimes called Being Brave, Stubborn and a Little Bit Crazy.

“Every time I fight the urge to run, it diminishes the fear a little bit. It never really cancels the fear of losing; I just have to keep challenging it.”

Fight back and ask myself the famous ’’What if’’ question!

I’m so good at leaving… so good. But I haven’t really run from anything lately… I’m doing well…
