Don’t shy away from difficulties. this is a temporary period.

Facing something doesn't mean staring at it all day. There's a difference between the letter opened at ten in the morning with coffee and the same letter turned over in your head at one a.m., with nothing that can be done about it until the offices open.

Avoidance and constant contact are both ways of not handling a thing. The middle option is scheduled attention: a set hour, the actual document in front of you, then the rest of the day off it.
