Turning Challenges into Opportunities

We all know that life is full of challenges, you have to deal with challenges to achieve something, but sometimes it looks like quite difficult to do so. This happens when we are not in a position to assess the challenge completely, although we know that we can overcome this challenge but we become so much nervous and helpless that with every upcoming tough challenge, we want to quit and get away from it.
But as we all know, when their is a challenge, it also brings some opportunity with it..what we need to do is of course to learn the art of converting challenges into opportunities..and believe me, neither it's tough nor impossible. Actually first and the foremost thing is to understand the problem and once it is done we can convert it to an opportunity.
Let us take for example let's take a mathematical question, a question from maths or trigonometry, until we know the basic mathematical formula, it will be impossible to solve it..but once we learn the formulas and it's application its becomes so easy. For those who were facing huge problems solving maths sums have turned into wizards in maths only by converting their problems into opportunities.
We also know that in any situation the weak minds see problem,balanced mind sees challenges and strong minds see them as great opportunities .
Therefore, one has to be balanced and well grounded in self belief, emotionally mature, confident, self assured ,self willed ,self possessed ,and committed to the intentions. Strong in resolve, having growth mindset,assertive, have high self esteem and self image ,be in control and in charge of oneself ,be decisive ,no past regrets and future fears interfering, nourish the idea,let go fears of failure and mistakes, care a damn about others criticism, look for possibilities and opportunities with prudence and of course sanity.
The way you turn it into an opportunity is to realise that other people will have the same problem. If you can solve it for yourself, you can sell the solution to others for a profit. A very common example of let’s say you’re having trouble losing weight. Lots of people struggle with the same thing. Create a blog or YouTube channel where you discuss your solution and track your progress. Then you can sell products related to health and fitness.
For instance, for years, the product used to supposedly clean a drain was too liquid and ran past the obstruction therefore it needed to be more thick to be efficient: even if you saw that, and had the idea, you needed to be a chemist to propose a different formula which now exists as a crystalline powder easy to put into the drain pipe overnight and morning you have free flowing drain. Another example of our generation was that, the deep freezer always came on top of the refrigerator, so you needed to kneel down to take your butter out of the fridge. As just a consumer, how would you turn this annoying fact into an opportunity specially for those elderly people or for those housewives who had a back problems?
I believe that one always needs some competence to create the opportunity. In other words, we cannot do it for free or it takes education and effort and relationships. In India we call it as "jugaad" when people who find innovative ways of doing things with available resources. Chances are there are others who also have had the same problem. So there is an opportunity if you can find a solution.Come up with ideas to resolve that problem. Don’t be miserly, come up with as many possible solutions that you can. Always be positive and stay blessed! #kishoreshintre
