“The way we see the problem is the problem.”
— Stephen Covey
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, the issue we face isn't the actual issue itself, but the way we look at it. For example, imagine you're stuck in a traffic jam. If you see it as a waste of time, you'll feel stressed and frustrated. But if you think of it as a chance to listen to your favorite music or catch up on a podcast, you'll feel much better. Our perspective can change everything. If we learn to look at things differently, we might find easier solutions and experience less stress. So, it's not always about fixing the problem directly but rather how we understand and react to it.
