Get the impossibleizemug. The essence of the term "problem-challenge and opportunity", which encourages individuals to interpret problems as challenges and opportunities.
In 2009, my Ph.D. professors made me aware of the term "problem, challenge and opportunity". It encouraged me to not see problems as situations which might be impossible to correct but as situations which have solutions. Nine-years later, to simplify and capture the essence of that novel three-word term, I invented the term OPTOIMPROVE. If problems did not come our way we would stop growing. Fredrick Douglas said, “If there is no struggle, there is no progress." And my Mother taught me that, "In life there is always a solution".

Get the WritingAllCapsNoSpacesmug. A design and constructed reality which filters out negative media messages, negative people, and applies the Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, and other Christian principles. It is more efficient, more honest, and respects and considers the individuals far more than the mainstream reality does.
Though no one anywhere is free to do everything they want, in the United States we enjoy the most freedom anyone has ever enjoyed. I take advantage of my freedom by doing all I can to feel the most pleasure and the least pain. Seeing mainstream reality's flaws, I also imagined and visualized myself and others living in a better reality, a "personalized reality" and filtered out all the negative messages the media disseminates.
