There are times in our lives when problems become the center of our existence, instead of letting the center of our existence navigate our problems. Wherever you are on your problem solving journey, I offer these humble thoughts on problem solving to you today.
- Sometimes a problem can be a tick to a new life.
We aren't expecting it. We didn't ask for it. But, there you go. Another step in the trip.
- Problems reveal our character.
How we respond says more about ourselves than about our problems. Are we centered? Do we create focus? Do we explore the new possibilities with curiosity?
- Problems, puzzles, and predicaments -- do you now which you are stuck in?
When we are most centered in our approach to observing, accepting, and responding it almost doesn't matter what the nature of the problem is -- we can focus with our most noble and pure intentions.
When it works. Sometimes a problem knocks us down and laughs at our humble ego thinking we've got it all figured out. But not when we are fully centered. Not when those problems are just something to unravel.
What are you thinking about today?
