Conflict Is Actually a Conflict Is Actually a GOODGOOD Thing…Thing…

“Conflict is the gadfly of thought. It stirs us to

observation and memory. It instigates to invention. It

shocks us out of sheep like passivity, and sets us at noting and contriving.”

John DeweyJohn Dewey

“Each problem has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it

literally dwarfs the problem. The greatest success stories were

created by people who recognized a problem and turned it into an

opportunity.”
