Throw Problems Away
 

Throw Problems Away.

The head of a small firm had a tendency to blow up small difficulties into insurmountable obstacles.

So he took the following words, printed them on a card and wired the card to a basket: "With God all things are possible." Whenever a problem came up, he threw the paper pertaining to it into this basket, and let it rest there for a day or two. "Each matter, when I took it out of the basket again, didn't seem difficult at all," he said. In this act, he dramatized the mental attitude of putting the problem in God's hands. As a result, he received power to handle problems normally and therefore successfully.
