Proverbs 15:32

“He who disdains instruction despises his own soul, But he who heeds rebuke gets understanding.”

When you are working on solving your problems you want to become a solution to your problems and not another problem. If you are not trying to become a solution then this can make it harder to solve your problems and you will not reach the time limit you set to solve them. When solving your problems if you yourself are not becoming a solution but are becoming another problem this can make solving the problems harder and make it almost impossible to move forward.
