Problem!

Anything that inconveniences me is a problem, you readily exclaim.

Now wait a minute, said an astute Coach: Do you notice you are always there where there is a problem?

What makes a situation a problem? Your perception! The way you look at a situation makes it a problem. Alter your perception, and the situation is no longer a problem. After all, a situation is just a situation. It’s neutral. It is our perception that colors it.

A situation becomes a problem; because you make it a problem.

A wag put it beautifully: Your problem appears very big, because you are very close to it!
