Having Problems Today?

We all have problems. Problems are a part of life. Think about the biggest problem you are dealing with. Now imagine yourself telling Bill Gates about your problem.

How would he react? What would he say? Would he even view your problem as a problem?

-----------------------------

Remember:

At the heart of every problem lies a seed of opportunity.

Thorns and roses

Today, will you choose to focus on the problem or the opportunity?

Will you choose to look at the thorns or will you focus on the rose?

Sondra, love the photograph and the thought provoking post. It was something that I really needed to hear this morning because I've got a few things going very wrong and had to cancel my City Hall tour after waiting weeks to get in (to deal with the ongoing drama which is my life). Bummer. I really wanted to follow up on my previous photo tour. Oh well... this looks like it is going to turn into a double turtle run day.

Sondra, Thought provoking... the trick is to figure out the opportunity in the problem. By the way, Bill Gates would view my biggest problem (actually there are two of them) as a problem!

Sondra, great shot! Great thought! This is a flowers for the soul type post. I love it.

Hi sondra,

Thanks for sharing. The rose is beautiful!

Sondra, Thanks for the great post and photography! I'm looking towards the opportunity today!

Sondra,

Very sweet and to the point, I like it!

Perfect timing Girlfriend! I have a few "thorns" right now that I am trying to turn into opportunities. Some hours it's easier to stay positive than others. Think I better print off that rose picture for my desk!

Sondra - nice post, great photograph, never noticed the thorns until you asked the questions. I tend to focus on a problem, but only to find a solution. I don't dwell on them.

Well... If we didn't have problems..well we might be out of work. :0)
