Pies And Bienestar When is it time to give up? That is not an easy question to answer. A simple answer would be NEVER, but life is not as simple as that. It really depends on what you want to achieve. If you are only looking for being right no matter how wrong you are, then by all means don’t give up, even if it makes you completely stupid. It is very human to have problems. In theory we may need our problems in order to feel more important, to get more attention, sympathy or pity. We talk about our problems and make them worse than they really are. As much as we apparently love our problems, since we talk about them all the time, we love our solutions even more. The good thing about solutions is that it is more constructive to focus on solutions than on problems. Unfortunately our solutions are often uninspected and do not work. At one point or another we decide that we have a solution and than we stick to it year by year, even if it doesn’t work at all. Things

like I’m going to stop smoking if I get pregnant; one day they will invent a miracle pill so that I can loose weight; I have been eating junk food for twenty years and haven’t died yet so it must be good for me...etc. What it really means is that we have not yet come to a point where change is needed, and if there is no need for change, nothing will change. Are you in perfect health, physically, socially and mentally? Are you coping alright with everyday stress, shortcomings and fears? Don’t invite disaster. Don’t even invite the smallest pain or loss of energy. Something can usually be done about it and if you are ready for a change then there is a good chance that we can help you. There is no need for giving up improvement. Visit us at Pies y Bienestar, Calle Pintada 73 in Nerja, telephone 722 188 811
