Live to solve a problem
1 – “My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2 – For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 – Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 – So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 – Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 – In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7 – Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
8 – It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.” (Proverbs chapter 3 verses 1 to 8)
Life is all about living with the consciousness that you are in to solve a problem.
There is a problem every individual lives to solve. It is a compulsory calling upon every individual to live to solve a problem. If you are not living to solve a problem, I can tell you you are living off track. Problem is part of life. And problem solving is part of life. This is a reason mankind came into place in the first place. The existence of mankind is to solve a problem that him or her only can solve.
There is no two ways about solving a problem. If you are not living each day to solve a problem, you problem is growing bigger at each breaking of the day. You can’t live your life as though you were created to be marking time. Whatever the day brings that is it. It is absurd to live one’s life at the expense of whatever the day brings. You have to realise that life is never about what each breaking of the day brings, life is all about living with the consciousness that you are in to solve a problem.
Solving problems is an individual calling.
Each breaking of the day in some cases has its own unique problem. You must live to fully embrace it with the conviction that it is one of the problems you were called and created to handle. Any problem you fail to handle now might handle you in the future. Yes, the problem you fail to solve now at its tender stage, might become bigger for you to handle in the future. Do not leave for tomorrow the problem you can handle for today.
Life is all about solving a particular problem. There is nothing less than that and there is nothing more than that. Every individual was designed to be remembered by the problem he or she was able to solve. If you are not solving a problem, I can tell you you are becoming a problem to the world. Solving problems is an individual calling. Everyone’s hands must be on deck. You can’t be assuming that there are those created to solve problems and there are those who were created to watch others solving problems.
Your failure to take up the responsibility to solve problem is the reason things are still the way they are.
You were created in the team to solve problems. If you were not relevant, you would not have made it this far. Irrespective of whatever you are facing or passing through, you are in to solve that problem. Stop quitting from the problems and challenges of life you were created to handle. Stop making life look terrible because you failed to live up to expectation. Your failure to take up the responsibility to solve problem is the reason things are still the way they are.
You can’t continue to live with the mindset that whatever that happens that is the way nature wants it. You harbour and live with problems as a way of life without stirring up the motive to handle them. That is absolutely misnomer. May you never be the reason why people around should lament more than they should because you failed to take up that responsibility that would have put a smile on their face.
Stop shying away from problem you have the capacity to handle.
There are two tracks in life. One track is for those who live to solve problems. The next is the track of those who live to cause problems. No one remains on the fence. If you are not living to solve a problem, you are living to add problem to the earth. Every individual will be remembered either by the problem he or she solved, or he or she will be remembered by the problem he or she created. There are much problems in life already to tackle that you don’t have to add to that.
It is better you always resolve to take up such responsibility when an opportunity calls than thinking another person to take it up. If the world was just you, how would have the entire earth be like? If everyone was thinking the same way you think and act the same way you do, what would have been the outcome of this? Always remember, if you fail to solve that problem, it is going to become a problem to everyone. Stop shying away from problem you have the capacity to handle.
Conclusion:
Make yourself available for solving problems. When people around think about who to bring into the team to solve a particular problem, may your name ring in the heart of everyone. Be that agent who will live each day putting a smile on the faces of the people and society at large by solving problems. Even when you are done and gone, you will always be remembered by the good works you have done.
