When we consider our problems, we look for someone or something to blame.
Circumstances, bad timing, bad “luck”, enemies, difficult people.
The trouble is that finding a place to put blame still does nothing to solve the problem.
Even if blame can properly be placed on someone or something, the problem still exists.
So in the end, it is up to us to fix the problem.
And if we fail to fix the problem, we have just found the real problem.
John Maxwell put it this way, “Coping with difficult people is always a problem, especially if the difficult person happens to be you.”
