The tide will turn

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Solution-oriented!

Don’t find fault, find a remedy.

Henry Ford

This can’t be stressed often enough: Your every action should be solution-oriented!

Instead of looking for scapegoats or excuses, you should use your brain to search for a way to overcome the obstacle you are facing.

Never forget this doctrine: Think and act solution-oriented. Forget blame and fault and start taking responsibility in a positive, solution-oriented way!
