  • So many people who waste a lot of their time (and mine) talking about their problem, they are avoiding looking for a solution. They are too lazy to make the effort of using their brains to look at solutions.
  • For every problem there is a solution, and capable people will look for that solution. Make sure you're one of the capable people.
