It is a conundrum
A riddle to be solved, where the answer in the moment seems impossible.
A conundrum is inherently a threshold crossing. Right here, right now, the puzzle is impossible. There is no way forward that doesn’t come at a cost.
Often what is needed is to add time. Wait a little. Things change. Even impossible things change, sometimes very quickly.
We can also change how we are perceiving the conundrum. Like moving our heads, looking at the issue upside down and inside out. Ask impossible questions. Ask others for their perspective.
Puzzles and conundrums are solvable, in their time, not ours.
Patience, flexibility and openness to the wonderful and wacky help.
