Problem Solving
I just solved a problem.
Not a big one … had to do with TV, DVDs, programming, etc.. You know, the kind of stuff that drives ya’ nuts.
But with some googling and experimenting, I got it. And was I happy!
People are problem-solvers; it’s our nature, and I’ve learned the three Ps pathway to problem solving: Persistence, Patience and Prayer.
Persistence – stay with it; try alternatives.
Patience – don’t lose your cool; there IS a way, and you will find it.
Prayer – a simple “Jesus my LORD” to stay in touch with God.
My “problem” was a small one, but it taught me a lesson I’ve learned and had to learn so many times.
There IS a way.
You WILL find it.
Maybe not today, or even tomorrow … and some problems require months and years – ask a scientist or an engineer working on a satellite launch.
Anyway, no big deal for me, but I’m happy to have solved the problem.
Whatever your problems might be today – and some of them are huge – you WILL find a way through … you WILL work it out … you WILL succeed.
Persistence, Patience and Prayer.
