| 4 Steps To Turn A Problem Into An Inspiring Vision |
Panic and Frustration –
You get into a foul mood, maybe slip into depression. Imagine if you’re a perfectly healthy person who suddenly gets diagnosed with a terminal illness or a kidney needs to be removed. Or maybe you’re running a business and because of certain circumstances you lose your top customer, shaving off 30% of your revenues forcing you to think about laying people off. This isn’t ideal. It’s normal for people to get into a funk, get angry, and frustrated. I mean, who wants a kidney removed? But you don’t want to stay here. This is not the optimal response.
Fix It: You start focusing on the problem itself. This can be a slippery slope. Some people start obsessing or they become totally fixated on what’s wrong, what needs fixing, what’s broken. This is not a good state either. Because what you focus on you magnify. So when you focus on the problem you begin to magnify the problem. You end up with an obsessive fixation on the problem and this is not going to solve your problems.

If you’re frustrated, angry, depressed, obsessing over the problem, you can still pull yourself into this third and most powerful state. In this state you create a vision so inspiring and powerful that the original existing problem becomes obsolete.
