Opportunities not Problems

Have you noticed how draining it is to focus on problem solving? There is a natural bent toward negativity when looking at things in that way. A problem pops up. That problem is managed only to be replaced by another situation that needs to be fixed. On and on it goes. A problem orientation pulls us mentally and emotionally downward. There are at the same time multiplied opportunities that can be seized. The sound of seizing an opportunity is so much more appealing than solving a problem. There are positive vibes associated with making the most out of an opportunity. The lesson is all about the approach we take. We can be positive, or negative based on how we look at things. The very nature of a problem suggests there is an opportunity to take advantage of. The energy of everyone involved moves in a much more productive direction when we train ourselves to see opportunities instead of problems. What opportunities are there around you waiting to be seized? Work it out!
