Default Problems?

I heard a speech by a guy named Kerry Shook last night and he made a statement that stuck in my head. He said, "life is full of problems, because they are all around us." It stuck in my head because I always say that it is only a problem if you look at it that way. Then he had a gentleman by the name of Nick join him on stage. Nick had the most inviting personality that just lured you in. The interesting thing about Nick is the fact he was born with no arms or legs. He looks at the world as opportunity not problems and most people find that INSPIRING! SMILE

I think many people create their own problems themselves.
I like how Nick looks at the world. I hopeful he won't change his positive viewpoint on life withing years.

I personally believe that we make up our experience of life with our perception, and how we use this will determine whether we live a life full of happiness and joy or one drenched with misery and depression.

It's great to see people who people would think would have problems and difficulties approach life from a perspective of opportunity and promise.

To Your Success,
Matthew Cluff

If you want a mega-dose on such people who are so inspirational, make sure you watch the next Paralympics on TV. All of the athletes there will impress and inspire you.
