Where There Is A Will There Is A Way

Problem Solver My very wise mother used to let me know about the old adage a lot saying

Where There Is A Will There Is A Way.

I do think in modern day society with business issues or in our personal lives with "problems" we may give up many times too soon and just accept something as is. It really comes down to your DRIVE, your WILL, to solve something. Pursuing it like a dog after a squirrel.

With Apollo 13 and the on the way to the moon accident with the Service Module engine the Houston Command Center told the team FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION. They got BUSY thinking how to get the three astronauts home. Most problems really do have AN ANSWER. Work hard at it, you'll find it!!!

Totally agree. I have a lot of deals up in the air now but I do believe there is a solution.

Eli Maria: First commenter!! You are fast. Besides my consistency, I would say determination ranks right up there as a strength. Long distance runners have that you know :) ENDURANCE. Yes you definitely go for it! Great quality.

Chuck: Keep at it and those solutions do develop like film pulled from the camera. Whenever I look at deals backward I see when I started I had no clue how it would turn out, but the pieces fell into place EVENTUALLY.

I agree failure is not an option. You're never a failure unless you quit.

Gary: "Where there is a will there is a way" was also preached in our family. "You can achieve the American dream" was another.

Have a nice Thanksgiving and thanks for the reminder.

Hi Gary, There may be an even better adage right here in your post photo. " Always have the determination of a Jack Russell Terrier and you will either get your way or end up in cage all day", LOL.

William: Those Jack Russell's are frisky as hell LOL.

Gary, Apollo 13 is a movie that my husband has used to inspire his employees with something he does often called "Movieing You to Greatness". It is about teamwork and not accepting failure.

Outstanding post, where there is the will . . . . the person will find a way.

Good luck and success.

Gary, I love how a JRT will analyze then execute their plan. There's no such thing as failure, only results!

What DRIVES one more than the WILL. I'm not certain. But hell, if it is to be ...

you probably know the rest.
