Under Your Control

A moment of doubt need not last.

Your focus is under your control.

Persistence

Some big problems are solved by little solutions that never end.

Persistence is often under-rated.

-- doug smith

 

Start with Calm

It's amazing how many problems stop being problems once we are centered and calm.

-- doug smith

 

Strength and Commitment

It's not the problem that upsets you, it's not getting what you want.

Figure out what you really, really want, and that problem gets easier to handle as you get stronger and more committed.

Make It A Goal

Take your problems seriously, then take them away.

Find out what it is about the problem that is standing in your way. What is it that you really want? What is your goal?

Once you convert your problem statement to a goal you've opened the door to a thousand new possibilities. Your answer is in there.

Multiple Solutions

That extra tough problem might need multiple solutions -- in fact, its probably does.

-- doug smith

 

Try Anyway

Sometimes we must accept that we don't know how the solution will work and yet try to solve the problem anyway.

Action leads to destination.

Get On It

How many times must you experience a problem before you're ready to solve it?

-- doug smith 

On Our Toes

What if that problem is simply a dance step out of time?

Problems Need Change

The change we embrace is the change that solves our problems.

Maybe not the first time. Maybe not the second time. But, eventually.

Problems need change.

-- doug smith

 

No Hiding

We can't hide from a problem. It will find us. Every single time.

-- doug smith 

Prioritizing

Sometimes we have to avoid the problem in front of us to solve the problem ahead of us.

-- doug smith

 

More and More

I didn't ask for any of my problems but solving some of them gave me more than I could ever ask for.

-- Harry X. Tudas 

A Better Solution

A problem that resists your solution is searching for a better way.

It's your partner, not your enemy. It's gently, persistently, pushing you toward a better solution.

Your Best

Problems give you the platform to promote your best you.
