There is no real story without a problem. Have you noticed that in any story, from the movie “The Titanic” to any of the background material on people in the Olympics, everyone has to overcome a problem, or at least struggle with a problem, for it to be interesting. The same is true for our lives as well. If you didn’t have problems, you life wouldn’t be very interesting. You wouldn’t have any challenges, anything to keep you sharp, etc. You would be bored out of your mind. The big thing you would miss if you didn’t have problems is PRIDE. You feel good when you overcome problems, you self worth shoots up and you get a real glow, if you solve a problem. And the worse the problem, the better the feeling. Somehow the pain of solving the problem fades away, but the pride you felt afterwards remains forever. So make problems your friend and you will bring a real glow to your life.
