Once upon a time, there was a man named Xiaoming. How to understand this sentence?

Once upon a time, there was a man named Xiaoming. He is a young newcomer in the workplace. He has been working hard, but with the increasing pressure of work, he began to feel anxious and powerless, and gradually lost his enthusiasm for work. Whenever he faces difficulties and challenges, he always wants to escape the problem and cannot face it bravely.

One day, Xiaoming's boss told him a short story. There is a man in the story. He was walking when he saw an elephant, so he ran away. He ran away and looked back at the elephant, but accidentally fell into a deep pit. When he climbed out of the pit, he found that the elephant had already left, but he got into trouble for running away.

Xiao Ming was very shocked after hearing this story. He realized that escaping could not solve the problem, but would make him more passive and helpless. He began to try to face the problem bravely, take the initiative to find a solution and stop running away. Although he still feels stressed and anxious, he has learned how to deal with problems and become more confident and strong.

Through this short story, I want to express that escaping can't solve the problem, but it will make it more complicated and difficult to solve. We should face the problem bravely and find a solution. Only in this way can we really get rid of stress and anxiety and meet a better future.
