Do you have a problem? Here is a simple way to turn itnaround. Listen up, OK?
Take your problem and write it out. Now, as you're writing itnout, there will be a few sentences. Take the sentences andnnumber them, and leave a space behind each of them.
Now, what do you have? You have a project!
How do you feel when you say you have a project? Not nearlynas bad as you do when you say you have a problem, do you?
Now, go back and call it a problem.
How do you feel? Bad, right?
It's a good thing you know what to do, isn't it?
We all learn from our mistakes, and our biggest mistake mightnjust have been to use the word problem. What has it eve
done for us, except make us feel bad. Our goal in thisnlifetime is to make sure we don't feel bad unless wenabsolutely, positively have to. And that should never happennunless you take a poll of 100 people to see how many wouldncall it a problem. Of course, in that poll 100% of themnhave to say it was a problem.
Now, go ahead and change all your problems to projects and letnthe good times roll.
Remember, if you take the time and effort to change your viewnof reality, your brain will put in the time and effort to makenyour reality become your view.nn~~~~~~~~~
