YOU ARE AT THE WHEEL
Knowing the root of a predicament is a very vital step towards solving the problem.
Suppose you noticed a leakage in your car's fuel tank has caused an increase in your daily fuel consumption, how would you solve this problem?
Will you go to the gas station to fill up your tank to make sure you never run out of fuel or will you just seek to fix the tank's leakage?
I'm sure we'll all go for the second option which is fixing the hole. But why not the first one? After all, filling up the tank regularly will keep your car moving.
The reason why we'll all go with the latter is because that is the solution which address the primary problem.
It's the logical solution. But then, in life, people tend to focus on the wrong things when it comes to dealing with their problems. They refuse to see the logical solution that is standing right in front of them.
THE HEART OF THE PROBLEM
One thing you have to realize is that you're in control of your life. All power belongs to you. Your decisions have brought you this far and they will determine where you'll be in the coming years. Your current circumstances are results of your choices.
There's a big gap between thinking success and choosing success.
Most times, the heart of the problem you're having is you. Your reaction, your decisions, your work ethic, your lifestyle, it's all about you. You, not your parents, friends or your "village people".
You can choose to align your life with greater purpose, or let her choose for you. You can choose to believe some vague theories about life or choose not to.
You're at the wheel, you're responsible for wherever you eventually steer yourself to. If you're dissatisfied with life, the choices you've made are to blame. Take responsibility for your actions and try to do better.
At the end of the day, how we end up will be the result of our choices.
In Conclusion
Success doesn't happen by chance. It's a culmination of series of choices (both good and bad) you've made. These choices when put together, will make up your process, and your process will create your lifestyle which will inadvertently make you successful.
Instead of bothering yourself with other things, try working on yourself for a change.
Wow that's an awesome post, and yes we are the drivers of our life and we are responsible in directing ourselves and just as you have said the very heart of a problem can be one's own self so it left for us to choose to solve the problems from the root cause or not.

Our choices forms our future. Problem identification is a good way to make better choices and achieving success, since the idea of attaining success is based on our decisions.
Apparently, this things come from the subconscious. Failure to master it and how it works is why people struggle. Meanwhile the cause of all woes and success is still rooted back to self.
