“We cannot solve our problems with the
same thinking we used when we created them.” ―Albert Einstein
We all encounter challenges in our
daily lives. Some people face them squarely and come out with flying colors
while some people brood over them and lose their motivation. At times, they get
into depression mode. Denis Waitley once remarked, “Don’t dwell on what went
wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward
toward finding the answer.” Hence, what
we must learn is problems are part and parcel of our life. Accept the fact that
everyone has problems in this world. Some people disclose their problems while
some don’t disclose them.
Brian G. Jett quoted, "Problems
are like plants; you've got to get to the roots in order to prevent them from
popping up again." Whenever you encounter problems, find out the root of
the issue. Don’t get emotional. Separate your emotions from issues. Look at
them objectively. Be cool and composed. Explore multiple options to come out of
them. Don’t be part of the problem. Be a part of the solution. It is rightly said
that below average individuals talk about individuals, average individuals talk
about issues and above average individuals talk about ideas. Hence, associate with the individuals who
explore resolving the issues with their amazing ideas. They are part of the
solutions, not part of the problems.
When you look at great leaders like George
Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr, Mother
Teresa, and Nelson Mandela, they overcame many hardships with their grit and
determination. They did not run away from problems. In contrast, they faced the
problems squarely and came out with flying colors. The world salutes for their
extraordinary and courageous leadership. Remember, if you are strong, you can
bend the world; if you are weak, the world will bend you. Everything is there
in your mind. Hence, be strong to bend the world rather than to allow yourself
to be bent by the world.
Be bold to face the challenges. In the
present world, what people need is courage to resolve the issues. Neither money
power nor muscle power counts. What counts is your will power. Your level of
success depends on your level of your courage. Higher the courage, higher the
success! Remember, problems are passing clouds. They come and go away when you
are courageous.
“Most people spend more time and
energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.” ―Henry Ford
