As circumstances change, uncertainty may seem to become overwhelming.

But one reason uncertainty becomes overwhelming is our sense that known solutions will not work. The situation we’re in calls for a solution we’re accustomed to, but applying it doesn’t lead to the expected results.

What is missing is a sense of how the changed circumstances impact our experience. In essence, the challenge is to forget one’s learning. Letting go of one’s experience enables one to develop a solution based on the existing circumstances.
