“The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem.”
A wise man's words! What one person sees as a problem may not present a problem for another person, even if they were in the exact same situation. The difference then is not the problem itself but how the problem is perceived. Jack Sparrow calls this your attitude about a problem.
The tricky thing about how we perceive problems is, that our attitudes are shaped by our past experience, our expectations, our beliefs, thoughts and emotions. While we may not always have an influence over the situation, we do have the ability to influence our attitude. And often that shift of attitude already has a huge impact: Perspectives change and new possibilities for action open up. So it is about challenging your attitude around problems. How might we look at a situation differently? What would that mean?
Sound easy? If you are thinking it's not quite as easy as that, then there's good news. Often a little work around changing your focus can go a long way towards smashing those problems. And if your answer is yes, great, then I'd say you've got the problem solved:)
