Have you ever slipped into a… They-made-me do-it-mode? In other words….
1. Do you stress at work because they treat you badly… and make it happen?
2. Do you lack motivation because they bore you … and leave you uninspired?
3. Do you face financial worries because they pay too little … or ask too much?
4. Do you fail to care too much for others … because they fail to care for you?
5. Do you miss fun and adventure because they push rigid routines? 
You see its opposite by how you can win and help others to win – in spite of limitations that slow down progress.
Problems hit leaders and learners daily – but the masters build new neuron pathways for possibilities, energize and inspire creative approaches for innovative solutions.
According to Robert Kennedy, most people reach their visions, more from problems they solve to move forward, and less from opportunities that are handed to them.
George Bernard Shaw said it this way
Some people see things as they are and say, Why?"
I dream of things that never were and say "Why not?"
Do you ask … “Why?” Or do you inspire innovative visions by asking instead … “Why Not …?”
Research shows how people create new neuron pathways that move their brains closer to innovative solutions … bring personal growth … and inspire others to reach for more success … in spite of setbacks.
How so?
First, run from blame, be good to you, and within the ebb and flow of ordinary days your brain’s plasticity rewires for new neuron pathways that replace mediocrity with dendrite brain cells for peak performances, improvements, and mind-bending opportunities. Do you see any possibilities here for you or your workplace?
One thing that is always true is that you can't change the past. You can however take a look at the current situation and, in my mother's favorite phrase, ask "What good can we make of this?"
