Summary

Our biggest problem is one we don't know we have.

We all have problems we struggle to solve. Sometimes they’re personal, like being overweight; sometimes they’re bigger, like income inequality.

Yet many of them are solvable, having been solved before, so to solve them is a choice.

Only by solving problems do we progress, and to progress is to live.

When we choose not to solve them, we choose not to progress. Suffering unnecessarily, we choose a lower quality of life and sometimes a shorter life instead.

Sometimes we try to solve them — or we think we do. We invest money, time, energy and emotion.

Despite our educations, intelligence, experience, and expertise, however, many solvable problems go unsolved, regardless of the stakes; our investments, wasted.

It’s a choice we don’t know we’re making.

It is our problem with problems, and it is solvable, too.

Makes you question the important things in life.

A wonderfully thought-provoking book, giving a enlightened and fresh approach to both the small and more significant questions in life. Don’t be fooled by the length of the book. It’s well worth a listen and it gives a new perspective of every day questions as well as life changing ones.
