Name the new problem your last solution has opened up
After you resolve a problem, write down the next one that the freed-up time or energy is now showing you.
なぜ効果があるのか
In Graves’s account, solving the problem a person faces at one level frees energy and creates new existential problems, so the next problem tends to appear once the old one is handled. This page reads restlessness after a resolved problem as a candidate for the next problem to name, not as proof that the resolution was wrong. That reading is this page’s own.
やり方
- Pick a problem you have recently resolved or stopped carrying.
- Write down what has become easier or freer since then.
- Ask what that freed-up time, attention or energy is now pointing you toward.
- Write the answer as a question you could start working on this week.
エビデンス
The statement is in the reprint’s unindented passage on how a person changes levels: the solution of the current problem frees energy and creates new existential problems. That passage is not among the indented, editor-marked passages. (anecdotal)
The link to restlessness is this page’s reading, not a finding Graves reports. No independent study of it was found.
出典
よくある間違い
Assuming the restlessness after a win means you are doing something wrong, and trying to fill the new space with more of the old activity.
