Don’t find fault.
Find a remedy.

Have the
Right Mindset

for the Job

hen I think of work, I often see it as problem solving. I’ve
Wsaid before that if you don’t have problems, then either
you’re pretending not to see something or you don’t run your own
business. Problems come with the territory, and they should never
surprise you. You should expect them.
Even if you work for someone else, it’s a good idea to expect
problems and to be ready for them. To me it’s a realistic approach.
No matter how hard you work, there are times that things happen
that are out of our control. Keep your eyes on your ideals as well
as reality. That’s what being prepared really means.
Very often when people refer to the morning of September 11,
2001, they will mention that it was a beautiful September morn-
ing in New York City. Within two hours, our view of a beautiful
morning had been radically changed. Were we prepared for it?
Could we control the outcome?
