Week 1, Thing 2- 7 1/2 Habits

The hardest thing for me about these Habits is definitely seeing problems as challenges. I don't have this problem at work or in school, but I find it difficult to believe that my car breaking down is an opportunity for growth. I view it more as an opportunity for me to be stranded.

First, congrats for starting this program and starting a blog. I think that's the hardest part. Second, I've read a lot of these blogs and we ALL seem to be struggling with the view problems-as-challenges issue. But in my advanced age I really see the point. Everything, everything, everything is a way to learn something. When I think about it I'm surprised to see that almost all of the most annoying and/or painful stuff I've bumped into in the past has helped me deal with the next even more annoying and/or painful experience. It's against my nature to acknowledge this when it's happening but it seems to be true!
