Can a problem in life present an opportunity in disguise?

    This is what H.G. Wells has to say about it -

    How is a problem in your life really an opportunity?

    Problems invite us to go inside to recognize a bigger picture of ourselves and of life. This bigger picture brings meaning to what is unfolding. When you feel trapped in a problem, see if you can shift your perspective. Ask yourself, “What is my soul inviting me to learn from this situation?” The answer will always revolve around a quality or value, like gratitude, freedom, compassion, love, will, humour or acceptance. The answer will also always promote union rather than separation.

    "We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact that each moment of life is a miracle and mystery."

    -- H. G. Wells

    Overcoming challenges is what makes you tougher.

    However challenges disguise themselves, they always come to make us stronger, so I agree.

    Problem solving is something that we do every day, whole life. So yes, in a way they can help, if they are not toooo big.
