Problems are part of our everyday lives, part of our lives, but it’s not always how we deal with them. In general, there are two ways of dealing with problems: we can let them get the better of us, or we can overcome them. Below, we share pictures of people who have been able to find solutions to problems in creative ways. For example, did you ever think you could use a hood to carry a pet?
Every problem can be solved and sometimes it’s just a matter of how we think. The pictures below show that sometimes it’s okay to think outside the box.
