You're Either Part of the Solution or Part of the Problem

"You're either part of the solution or part of the problem."


That saying is one of my favorites.  First, I would ask you be careful using this saying.  It can easily be taken as a criticism on insult, depending on when you use it.  In fact, I rarely will say this to anyone.

The value in this saying is to keep it to one's self and use it as an evaluation criteria for whatever you are doing.  As human beings, we often partake in destructive behavior.  I must admit that I have picked a fight with my wife for no good reason.  More often I've complained out of my frustration about some situation.  I've tried to train myself to stop, and ask "am I part of the solution or part of the problem?"

It's not a good feeling to realize you're part of the problem.  Don't beat yourself up.  Just stop!

Are YOU part of the solution or part of the problem?
