Greetings,
I have been working on one defect that is having impact on my life since my childhood. Also there is second defect working with that defect so I am working on it too (not so much as on the main one I am focused).
So the thing is that defect tends to hide, I try to provoke it and then I work on it. It seems I almost exhausted all memories of that defect and can't go deeper as I am not that good at meditation yet. And yet I can't comprehend the damage and bad things it has done to me yet (I can speculate, but it is no way the same as comprehending it).
I try to go deeper during my meditation, but tend to get distracted or fall asleep.
I don't have 1 or 2 years of time to be better in meditation and can't work for so long on that defect as it is waste of time (there are thousands and thousands of other defects, when will I destroy those if I work for years only on one defect?) and it will be like pouring water from one cup to another again and again.
So basically what I am asking is how can one go deeper into subconsciousness to comprehend ones defect without working on that defect for years at the same time learning "meditation" little by little? What is the faster way? When one is not adept at meditation?
I don't have time to work on one defect for years, it has been already like 4 or 6 months. What is the shortcut (I am single at the moment, by the way)?
I hope my questions were clear, if you need more elaboration on situation feel free to ask.
Thank you.

Many times when we have worked on a defect as much as we can, an ordeal in our physical life will arise to test our comprehension. If such a trial comes to you, I advise you to be very prudent and to meditate on that situation daily to avoid repeating egotistical mistakes. It will teach you a lot.
Until then, take a break from that ego and meditate on what you see in your daily life instead. We are shown what we need to work on now by our present circumstances.

That really makes sense.
Just to stop bashing your head into the wall when you are at dead end...
Thank you!
