3 Truths To Be More Solution ✅ Oriented
Most people can see 👀 problems.
That doesn’t require any unique ability 🏅 or talent.
Someone who thinks 🤔 in solutions instead of just problems can be a difference maker.
My Friend, A team, filled with people who possess that mindset can get things done 📈
Your personality type, upbringing 👨👩👧👦 and personal history may affect how solution-oriented you are naturally.
My Friend, However, anyone 👤 can become solution oriented.
My Friend, Consider these truths that all solution-seeking people recognize:
1️⃣ Problem is a matter of perspective 🔭
My Friend ⛔️ Obstacles, setbacks, and failures are simply parts of life.
❌ You can’t avoid them.
My Friend, But that doesn’t mean you have to allow them to become problems.
My Friend, The best thing you can do is to meet them with a solution-oriented mindset 🧐
It’s just a matter of attitude.
2️⃣ All problems are solvable ✅
My Friend, Some of the great problem solvers have been inventors 💡
My Friend, Charles Kettering explained, “I was research leader of General Motors 🚗 and wanted a serious problem solved, I’d place a small table outside the office meeting room with a sign: ‘Leave slide rules 📏 here 👇🏻’
My Friend, If I didn’t do that, I’d find someone is reaching for his slide rule.
My Friend, Then he’d be on his feet saying, ‘Boss, you can’t do it.’”
Kettering believed all problems were solvable, and he helped 🙏🏻 to cultivate that attitude in others.
If you want to be solution-oriented, then you must be willing to cultivate that attitude in yourself, too 🙌🏼
My Friend, 3️⃣ Problems either stop ⛔️ us or stretch us 💪🏻
My Friend, Problems either hurt 😞 you or help you 🙂
My Friend, Depending on how you deal with them, they’ll stop ⛔️ you from succeeding 💪🏻 you so that you not only excel in them but also become a better individual in the process 🏆
The choice is yours
