German term or phrase: herangetragen
Jedes Problem, an uns *herangetragen*, wird in irgendeiner Form verarbeitet. Warum ein ganz bestimmtes Ergebnis dabei herauskommt, darüber machen wir uns normalerweise keine Gedanken.
Wird ein Problem erfolgreich bewältigt, so wird dieselbe Lösungsstrategie auch bei später auftauchenden ähnlichen Problemen immer wieder angewendet. Es entwickelt sich so im Laufe eines Lebens ein bestimmtes Problemlösungsritual. Es bilden sich Denkmuster (geistige Trampelpfade), die bei weiteren "Erfolgserlebnissen" weiter verfestigt werden.
