Dealing with problems

“The way we see the problem is the problem” - Stephen R. Covey

It isn't that we can't see the solution it's that we can't see the problem.

“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” - Albert Einstein

Problems are only solutions in disguise.

“A problem is a chance for you to do your best.” - Duke Ellington

“Don't tell your problems to people: eighty percent don't care; and the other twenty percent are glad you have them” - Lou Holtz

“Problems are to the mind what exercise is to the muscles, they toughen and make strong” - Norman Vincent Peale

Focus 90% of your time on solutions and only 10% of your time on problems.

A Man and A Woman

"When a man gets up to speak, people listen, then look. When a woman gets up, people look; then, if they like what they see, they listen."

A man alone is not a unit of society - nor a woman alone. It requires two. Reason alone, or feeling alone, is not enough for important decisions. It requires both.

A man's best fortune, or his worst, is his wife. Ditto for the wife's husband.

The bible in Genesis 2:23-24 tell us this:
"And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
