I recently bought a small charcoal BBQ pit. I was absolutely terrible at using it. I couldn't quite get the timing right. Coals were either not hot enough or too hot. I either put things on too soon or not quick enough. After several raw or over-cooked meals I decided grilling just wasn't for me and put the grill away.
When discussing different ways to problem solve with a client, I challenged that if someone ran out of toilet paper they didn't just say "Oh well...guess we'll never have toilet paper again. No. They would go out to the store and buy more toilet paper". Then I realized I hadn't really made an effort to problem solve the grilling challenge. With the help of my 13 year old son, I researched on You Tube how to grill with charcoal. I'm proud to say we had our first edible grilled meal last night.
If you have a problem that is hanging over your head. Whether it's a little thing that is like a pebble in your shoe, small but bothersome, or a big life challenge, I encourage you to brainstorm some solutions. Spend as much time seeking answers as you do worrying. Remember, you wouldn't just allow yourself to run out of toilet paper!
