Problem ? What is a problem ?

Great Things Come Through Difficult Problems

Local Billboards, specially those near a church or even in a large parking lots with various offices, entertain visitors through flashing Advertisement Banners and some with Billboards having thought provoking words like the one above.

I pass by a billboard  on the way to work.  Billboard doesn’t change much, but when it does, it often makes me do a lot of meditation, and longer. Sometime I rewind the phrase all day long when I am idle or sometime till I see another one on the billboard ! Is this really too much. Not really. Great mediation brings Great mood and guess what, No difficult Problems are involved. Alright !

I see this Billboard as a positive phrase:

Yes sure, when you solve all the problems, you will achieve great things. And some of those great things surely bring you happiness and you may get your dream on  hand. What more could I write than that ?

I see this Billboard as Negative also:

So, I am burred with way too many problems and solving one makes another problem. For example, I would like to solve a problem called Mr. A, but it could bring a problem for another person called Mr. B. Yes. I am talking about Breaking someone’s heart for a cause that it is only mine. This act would be a sin for my actions are done to hurt someone. I would like to avoid  this and also not even think about it. Wrote it here as an example for you.

It’s impossible to tell how many people on Earth find a way to go online.  I believe Internet hasn’t been affordable nor has it reached to everyone on Earth. To me, Internet still seems a luxury item. For those who can afford it, this applies to even developed countries like U.K or U.S. Having said, that, Problems seem similar like the Internet. Not everyone has same stories to rant about, not everyone has same solutions. So, it’s 100% true, many of our problems could be unique to our situations, our actions, our past traits and even plans that we’ve made were not right.

I like the positive side of this phrase more than the negative. So, I am writing this article so that you find Great Things In your Life by getting tons of problems or going through difficult times in your life. There should be a bright light at the end of a dark tunnel you may be crawling now. So–Just relax, will ya?

We gonna find it no matter how painful our problems may be. Great Things are on our way. So let’s see some rules that might work. Shall we try this ?

Rule 1 :

DO NOT IGNORE PROBLEMS : When a problem comes, solve it before another one piles up. That way, you have less problems on your hand.  To make you laugh, let me write a real story of a person’s action and imagine what sort of great things will come by to him or her. When bills come, he puts them into his cars dashboard and never looks at them for years and years. Now, in my view, Great Things will only happen here, for this person, if he or she wins a lottery. Would you not agree ?

Rule 2:

Never judge your problem or make yourself happy by comparing to other similar problems that people might have and you think about them. No way. Don’t say something like this to solve your problem, “oh well, there are so many people out there, some are blind, at least I got eyes.” This is called the approach to no where, believe it. If you start judging others, trying to solve your problem, great things won’t come by; rather–way too many problems will come to your hands and you won’t have time to deal with it, for you have carried a sin in your heart for judging people. Get rid off that sin and see your problem as yours and try to solve it. If money is the issue, work. Get a job.

Rule 3:

Judge people but those who have had way too many problems than yours. Judge them and see why you are different than them. Is there a way to see yourself as  them. I doubt it. Read about success stories of people who’ve had nothing and now everything. WIKI and Google is here for us, search! Often there are countless forums and support groups to deal with A to Z problems. Don’t be alone and depressed with having problems. Our common rule of solving problems need to be written again: Solve a problem as soon as you can, if not, don’t let it sit there on your table. Don’t give up. Unless you are designing a product that is not on this planet, and your room is filled with all sorts of paper balls and pencils and what not and everything and your beard has grown long enough catch dusts from the floor, it seems you have given up or you are working harder than others to solve your problems. May the latter be your case and don’t give up.  Let those beards grow, or hairs grow, who cares? As long as you are working this hard to solve your problem, you are really getting close to finishing it off. I really believe in you.

Rule 4 :

If someone has a problem with you, don’t waste your positive energy. It’s not your problem. Some people have fun being a hater or talk behind your back only to make you feel miserable. Don’t cry because you thought he or she was your friend. You only knew from someone or heard through a wall that people have been talking bad things about you. Don’t feel bad about it. People are like birds, except not all can sing good like the beautiful flying birds. Oh, how sweet they sing. Don’t they ? So, to finish this rule: Spend your time and energy on positive things. World is full of haters, and your job is to simply accept the fact and don’t go after them. If I am not making you feel good, what are the chances that right now, someone is talking bad about you but you can’t listen ? I don’t doubt it. People talk more than they listen. As for you my friend, forget those who love to chatter and hurt others. Was this your problem before another comes tomorrow? We just finished it! Thumbs up!

Rule 5:

Never get married until you have the safety net. The net enough to grow a baby, provide education; schools, college etc. and Also enough safety net to survive should you or your spouse gets laid off. Don’t marry someone with an empty head and believe “True love” means just do it–”don’t do it!” Marriage is a huge burden with lots of responsibilities. Ask any married couples.

Rule 6:

When trying to solve a problem, if it seems to be not working, try a different method. If we find that our applied solution isn’t working. Stop and retry the next time. Sometime we think too much or our approach tends to go the wrong direction. On a different day or time, with relaxed mind, problem goes away. Just how amazing the feeling is. You know you have experienced this. It’s a lesson for us, really. Working way to hard for solve a problem  and it’s not done. Go take a break. Do it next day and see if it works. Practice in Relaxation techniques, calm down, loosen up.  Never tell yourself, that you can’t solve it. Always say it, it’s a piece of cake and you gotta eat it, perhaps may be tomorrow. It’s not solved today, because you have eaten way too much cake! Brain might bring a different approach or your might think differently on a different time or day to solve the same problem and walla. You can now call yourself a champ !

Rule 7 :

If you have way too many problems on your hand, sort them in priority. Take one at a time and see if you do it. Work harder to solve your problems. Repeat the Phrase “Great Things Come Through Difficult Problems” and if you like, remove the word “Problem” and replace it with “Times”. If problems are making you have mood swings, do meditation, yoga, exercise, and be tough. The last rule is be Tough. Say it loud and clear like I did here in Capitals….

COME PROBLEMS COME.
