The Law of Gifts - Richard Bach, author of "Illusions" says "There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in it's hands. We seek problems because we need their gifts." I suggest we seek problems because we need the gift of their solutions. The Law of Quality - Everyone has problems. The only people I know who dont have problems can be found in the graveyard. The goal is to have a better quality of problem. Which problem would you rather have: Figuring out how to pay your bills or figuring out how to manage all the money you are making? The Law of Variety - If the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem begins to look like a nail. We need a variety of tools, not just one. Use your creativity. Believe you dont have any creativity? Do you ever worry? Then you have creativity. Worry is just creativity used in a negative way. The Law of Einstein - Albert Einstein said, You cant solve a problem with the same level of thinking that created the problem. This is what is meant by the popular business saying to think outside the box. The Law of Size - There is a time in the life of every problem when it is big enough to notice and small enough to solve easily. The Law of Sean Connery - In the movie Rising Sun actor Sean Connery says, In our country, when there is a problem, we look for someone to blame. In Japan, when there is a problem, they look for solutions. The Law of 5% - Spend only 5% of your energy on talking about the problem, & 95% of your energy on solving the problem.

The problem here is that we are limited to only two choices: this or that. The law of and allows us to tap into our creativity & the wealth of other choices available to us. I can do this & I could do that & I could........ The Law of Hope - When we get it that there is no hope in solving a problem, we lose any ability to solve it. Hope can be defined as a confident expectation, a certainty that problems can be solved. Babe Ruth said, You just cant beat the person who never quits. The Law of Nike (the law of action) - You can read all of the above laws & even post them on your refrigerator door, etc. The key is to take action, the key is to do them. |
