You will never have no problems. But, you can have better problems!

For instance, would you rather deal with affording your mortgage payment — or choosing which South American country to visit?

So, how do you get better problems? You solve the problem in front of you, again and again and again. Honing and expanding your problem solving skills with practice and discipline, like a martial artist.

Let’s talk about adopting a problem-solving strategy and how one day, you might just have great problems to solve!

Where to Start

First, you have to convince your self there is hope! Adopt an optimistic mindset that things can be better.

A good way to do that is to look at evidence. Think of a time when something has worked out for you, or a time when you did take a chance and solved a problem.

Of course, prepare yourself for ups and downs. Know that you won’t be 100% successful, but you will solve some problems!

So, believe that its worth it to try.

Embrace Problems
