How can individuals overcome the tendency to fixate on obstacles and instead cultivate a mindset that sees challenges as stepping stones to success?

Individuals can overcome the tendency to fixate on obstacles by practicing mindfulness and staying present in the moment. They can also reframe challenges as opportunities for growth and learning, rather than insurmountable barriers. Additionally, setting small, achievable goals can help break down larger obstacles into manageable tasks. Finally, seeking support from mentors, friends, or a therapist can provide perspective and encouragement to overcome obstacles and achieve success.
