Solve what you can control

I quote from David Mahoney:

Don't waste your time trying to control the uncontrollable, or trying to solve the unsolvable, or think about what could have been. Instead, think about what you can control and solve the problem you can solve with the wisdom you have gained from both your victories and your defeats in the past.


Always start with the smallest problem and sometimes along the way, you'll find that the bigger issue is being resolved while you're resolving the smaller ones. What's most important though is that you must learn from these experiences. Only then would you gain insight and experience and avoid getting into problems.
