Difficult problems
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Problems are not pleasant. That’s why they bring out the best in you, and in many, many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When one person finds a problem unbearable, that person works hard to get beyond it. When millions of people cannot tolerate a problem, that problem gets solved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good times are enjoyable, and bring about marginal progress. Difficult times, however, give birth to massive breakthroughs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are always things you can do to make life better. When you’re faced with a serious challenge, you actually do those things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you’re not happy with the situation, that’s good. Because you’re also powerfully motivated to change it in a positive way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Difficult, complicated problems don’t usually go away on their own, but they do go away. Because you, and a whole lot of other people, do the demanding work to make them go away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
