It's Not a Disaster. It's an Opportunity.

Our perception colours everything we go through in life. Nothing is good or bad. Everything is absolutely relative to how you choose to perceive it. So that glitch in the payment gateway system that takes months and money to fix? That could be an opportunity to deliver a better customer experience. Those nice suede shoes your colleague spilled bear on? That could be an opportunity to invest in real leather shoes that last a lifetime.

So, the next time you find yourself facing what seems like a complete disaster, remember you can fret and founder and look the easy way out. Or you can take a deep breath and see the disaster as the opportunity to make things better.
