However, when I was taught about the holistic approach, I learned how to be a better neutral observer and realized that there were many factors involved in the situation. So I saw the whole of the problem, not just one side.
Adopting a holistic view helped me make sense of the situation because I understood the different arguments of each side and other and other factors that were outside of my control. It gave me more patience to change what was in my hands, and tolerate and respect what was out of my reach.
