Always responding to short term pressures will only leave a person doomed to forever responding to short term pressures, in a version of living hell.
Taking special time, when one is fresh and capable and has the energy to think and decide, to focus on curing the cause of the problem is the only way out of hell - and is, indeed, putting one on the road to Heaven.
Those who squander that time, for whatever reason or excuse, will squander their very life and live a life of no power, no power to get the desired results one wants in life.
Those who use that time, valuing it as if it were gold (as it truly is), to go below the surface pressures to solve the very cause, will have few problems in life.
To put it another way, keeping on responding to short term pressures and to the same old problems is a sure sign of a person who does not know how to manage life to keep oneself out of hell.
The only cure is to learn and know better, but, then, the person who doesn't know better will not spend the golden time learning, knowing better, and applying his thinking to actually cure the cause of each problem as they come up. It is a vicious circle of ignorance, problems, no time, no thinking, not taking charge, and continued ignorance and lack of power.
If the person does not intervene to break in somewhere in the vicious circle and always is in defense of why he can't, then the person is doomed to living in the hell of the mind (often referred to as "living in your head, instead of reality"), unable to be effective in the outside world and always having to work hard to make up for it - doing life the hard way, the unhappy, stressful way....
Can I encourage you to break the cycle of life ignorance, by accepting, instead of denying, that you need to learn and start it right now, intensively, not "later" or "when demands on my time free up"?
[See Are You A "Life" Dilettante Who Is Missing Some Of The Essential Blocks Of Knowledge? It is easy to spot one. Typically they know just enough to talk a good game and to tell other people how to live better (providing lots of "tips"), but they themselves are not actually producing the desired results for themselves or for their loved one. The irony is that they are not even aware of their ignorance, although though they ongoing feel bad (anxious, angst, wary, defensive, not settled...)]
