Words to live by

Recently, I read an article online. The author was discussing the challenges you face when you work in a hostile environment, and what you can do about it. One phrase stood out from all discussion, a phrase that applies as much to life outside of work as it does to worklife:

“You’ll never be problem-free. Go looking for the problems you want to have.”

It took me a moment, but I got it. And the author is right; find the problems that satisfy your need, and you will happily solve them. Pick your problems, don't let them pick you.

Thank you Ellis Morning for the great advice.
