Fixing Problems
Can you remember a day when you did not have some problems, irritation, disappointment, defeat or setback of some kind? It might be having to make an unexpected stop at the gas station because your brother drove your car and neglected to refill it. Or maybe your boss gave you incomplete information on an important project and now you have to start all over.
The big issue is not the problems; they are part of life. The issue is how to handle the problems. Do you let a simple problem dictate how you should behave the rest of the day, even the way you deal with other people? Sometimes, it is hard to do, but ask yourself the question, ‘What real difference does this make in my life tonight, or even in the morning?’ In most cases you will realize that it really doesn’t matter. With that in mind, you will be able to forget the problem of the moment and move on.
You can take control of your own thoughts, actions, and emotions, which means you can take control of your life. The best way to deal with problems is to reorder your thinking and see them as opportunities to grow or mature. It also helps to remember that if there were no problems in your job, chances are good you would not be needed. Chances are also good that the greater the difficulties, the greater the need for you to be there to handle them. That is the reason you are on the payroll.kAkA.hUnTeR
The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
