problems = opportunity

                                                                   viaWhile I was away at the beach last week I did a lot of reading. One of the books I read was called Thinkertoys and there were many brain exercises and creative thinking techniques......{ I recommend it!} ......but the overall perspective was turning problems into opportunities by changing your perspective, adding or taking away elements, and challenging the norm.  I wrote a few pages of notes, and already referred to them again today....but one of my favorite quotes from the book was this :  "Problems are nothing more than opportunity dressed in work clothes".You hear me? Turn those problems into solutions by rejecting passive thinking and use active thinking to generate and organize new ideas!
