Yet it looks as if the thing we use to solve our problems with is the source of our problems. It's like going to the doctor and having him make you ill. In fact, in 20% of medical cases we do apparently have that going on. But in the case of thought, its far over 20%.

Summary

This quote suggests that the very thing we rely on to solve our problems, which is our own thinking or thoughts, can in fact be the root cause of our problems. It draws a parallel to going to a doctor who ends up making us sick instead of healing us. The quote further states that while this phenomenon may occur in about 20% of medical cases, in the realm of thought, it is far more prevalent, indicating that our own thinking often exacerbates or creates the challenges we face.
