In my reading in the Integrity book yesterday I read something else that was interesting. It was the concept of how integrated character deals with problems.
The author tells of a sign he saw many years ago in the "war room" of a major corporation. It read, "No problems, no profit." He went on to talk about how all of the really successful people he has worked with in his consulting business deal with problems.
He has found that those who actively embrace problems and tackle them as just one more problem to be solved, rather than avoiding them or even running from them, are the ones who profit. Not just financially, either, though that is usually a byproduct.
It's the mentality of leaning into problems, or facing into them that separates integrated character from underdeveloped character.
What do you think? Is he off base?
