I got challenges, not problems.

How a simple word change can change your trajectory

I don’t have problems. I have challenges.

This isn’t to say my challenges aren’t problems. This is to say that problems when seen as problems can become real problems.

When problems are challenges, they are something you can work with. They are something with the potential to be overcome with a little bit of effort, some perseverance, and a touch of patience.

And all it takes is a simple word change.
