SOLVE WHATEVER YOU CAN
When was the last time you grew a smile on your face because of the gladness in your heart as a result of you being a major tool in solving a problem? They say no problem is to big to solve; I’d say neither is any problem too small to ignore. A problem would remain a problem until a solution is proffered to it and there’s no greater joy than the joy of solving a problem.
Just imagine how Thomas Edison would have felt when he finally invented the electric bulb even though it took him a thousand experiments. Alexander Graham Bell must have studied so hard just to make sure he solved a major problem in communication by inventing the telephone. Even the famous American brothers Wright Ovvill and Wright Willur, renowned for going off-limits by inventing and flying the first practical aeroplane, saw possibilities in impossibilities and eventually overcome because at that time, the existence of an aircraft was totally an absurd idea. The bottom-line is – problem solvers are always remarkable people. History never forget them. Their names remain printed on the sands of time. Their good-deeds are never forgotten.
In life, one of the major reason we live is to encounter problems and solve them. What then happens to a person who never solves a problems? Every problem is worth solving no matter how small it may be. There is always a feeling of relief one feels when one profer solutions to problems.
Problem solving is never in-born neither is it magic. Every problem solved is as result of knowledge gained from solving past problems. That is why I completely agree with the statement – No knowledge is a waste. That knowledge that seem useless at the moment would come in handy someday. The key to solving problems is courage. A courageous person is never afraid to break boundaries. He is never afraid of tackling problems even when he is not sure of a particular procedure to solve it.
Be courageous, never be afraid to tackle a problem. If you fail, then you’ve learnt a lesson. The lessons you learn are procedures to solving a greater problem. Solve whatever you can.
