yesterday, someone told me i should be a counselor because i always listen to peoples' problems. i replied with, "i like listening to peoples' problems (it takes away from my own, jk)." but i genuinely do like to listen because sometimes people just need to vent and release their pent up frustrations. i always try to give my perspective on the situation because sometimes the simplest thought can inspire them to take action or even change their view.
it's hard to solve your own problems because you have so much emotion invested in them. seeing things from someone else's point of view will almost always be helpful, even if only to confirm your own view.
