We often try to solve a problem by not working at solving the problem directly, in a kind of wishful thinking.
We feel lonely and then we use an affirmation to cover it over or we do something else to make us feel better. That's all good stuff, but it is not the same as solving the problem.
One of the problems with problems is that they are based on a number of components and have some complexity.
We humans basically operate mechanically off of metaprogams, which are master programs that are a combination of other programs.
We can't "solve" these problems all at once or in some simple way anymore than we can eat an elephant all at once. We can only do it a bite (a piece) at a time - and eventually we'll have the result of having eaten an elephant.
Metaprograms can be programs that cause a problem or they can be programs that cause a good result.
For instance, at Heartmath they get good results by using metaprograms that include a desirable effect, caused on purpose.
You are asked to get in touch with your heart. That means something to you (i.e. you have a metaprogram associated with it), which usually results in deeper and slower breathing, a softening, and a good feeling and so on. All we have to do is initiate the metaprogram and we're off and running - in a good direction.
So we want to use the good metaprogram and to correct the bad feeling metaprograms - and to the extent we do the latter, we can make very, very rapid and deep changes in how we experience life. If we don't, then guess what!? We get to repeat the bad program over and over and over and over - Sisyphus-like.
See Metaprograms.
One thing that would be good for you to do, and then share with me, is make up a list of "good feeling" metaprograms. That list will give us lots of metaprograms to initiate to "feel good", which are healthy than eating ice cream to create that feeling.
Yours toward happiness,
