Rather
than labeling the issues that come up during a typical work day as
problems, think of them as speed bumps (speed breakers). An actual speed
bump, as you know, is a low bump in a road designed to get your
attention and slow you down. Depending on how you approach and deal with
the bump, it can be a miserable, uncomfortable, even damaging
experience, or it can simply be a temporary slow down – no big deal.
If you step on the gas, speed up, and tighten the wheel, for example, you’ll hit the bump with a loud thump! Your car may be damaged, you’ll make a great deal of noise, and you can even injure yourself. In addition, you’ll add unnecessary wear and tear to your car, and you’ll look foolish and obnoxious to other people.
If, however, you approach the bump softly and wisely, you’ll be over it in no time. You’ll suffer no adverse effects, and your car will be completely unaffected. Let’s face it. Either way, you’re likely to get over the bump.
Problems can be looked at in a similar light. Depending on how you approach and deal with the problem, it can be a miserable experience, or it can simply be a temporary slowdown – no big deal.
Approach the problems like speed bumps - softly and wisely.
