Problems without solutions

Remember: problems have solutions.

If there’s no solution, it’s not a problem; rather, it’s a situation.

We can totally deplete ourselves of intellectual and emotional energy when we forget this principle — and we try in vain to wrestle with conditions that cannot be changed.

Engage, ignore, accept, reimagine — it’s always our choice. “I can fix this” is a noble mindset. But not every stone is meant to be moved. Sometimes, the way forward is around.
