I am so happy to start my posts with a wonderful topic- Problem!!
When I searched in Wikipedia there I found a definition: A problem is an issue or obstacle which makes it difficult to achieve a desired goal, objective or purpose. It refers to a situation, condition, or issue that is yet unresolved. In a broad sense, a problem exists when an individual becomes aware of a significant difference between what actually is and what is desired. Believe me, a problem is not as complex as this definition looks!
There was an incident narrated by the Positive thinking Guru, Norman Vincent Peale. One day Mr. Peale met a young man on the street who actually told Peale he would give a substantial amount of money to Peale’s church if Peale would get him rid of all his problems. Peale confirmed once if he wanted to get rid of ‘all’ the problems. He said, yes. Peale agreed that he would be able to help this man and informed him about a place there were 100,000 people and not one had a problem. The man insisted Peale to take him over there. Peale told him that he would not like it, as this was a big cemetery!
It is a fact that no one in a cemetery has a problem! Thus, logically Problem is a sign of Life. A person can hardly become strong without being subjected to hardships. If you cultivate this thinking, your creativity will be enhanced.
When there is a problem, you either deny it saying there is no problem, or you sit down to solve the problem and make it a big issue. Neither of these help. A problem does not disappear when you deny it and it does not get solved when you sit down to solve it. The effective ways to face the problems are: 1. Admit it exists, 2. See it as a small problem, and do not say it is big, 3. If it concerns people, keep in touch with them instead of avoiding them, 4. Talk less and give time a chance, and 5. Get together and celebrate. When you celebrate and put the problem on the back burner, you will see that the problem gets solved in time.
We know, many of the meetings to solve problems end up in disaster. If you do not have any problems, you will create problems or you will become a problem yourself! It is better to have a problem than to be a problem.
Like wise men said, do not solve all your problems. Keep at least one of them. You need something to munch on- and life goes on….
