Everyone has problems.
Personal and professional,
Simple and complex.
But there’s something about problems.
They don’t have to be negative.
They don’t have to be all bad.
Problems are meant to be faced.
They’re meant to be solved,
To be thought through,
To be worked on.
Problems make you learn.
They make you better.
They make you stronger.
They prepare you
For future problems.
Small, medium, large.
Byte, kilobyte, megabyte, terabyte.
Short, tall, grande, venti.
Whatever the size.
Whatever the magnitude.
Whatever the urgency.
They shouldn’t consume you.
They shouldn’t change your disposition.
They shouldn’t dominate your mind.
Imagine a world
Where people didn’t complain about their problems—
Where they were curious about them,
Even excited by them.
A world where people knew the difference
Between problems
And tragedies.
Because there are some
Who would give anything
To trade their tragedies
For your opportunities.
