Why is it that we so often wait until a problem is a real pain before we solve it?
It could be because we're so busy. It could be because we're so distracted. It could also be that we hope secretly that the problem just goes away.
But, problems don't just go away, do they? They tend to get worse until they are attended to. Left alone, problems get bigger.
Why not solve a problem before you feel its pain?
