What happens when we neglect a problem?
Would you agree that the problem gets worse? Problems are not good at fixing themselves. They need our help. They need our ability to center ourselves and focus on fixing what causes us (and others) grief.
We shouldn't neglect our problems. We can't neglect neglect (avoid neglecting by neglecting it). We should take action.
Problems get worse with neglect.
They don't stay the same and they don't get better. Problems ignored are problems spinning out of control. We can do better than that.
What positive action will you take today toward solving one of your previously neglected problems?
