Problems Problems A problem is when one intends two mutually exclusive outcomes at the same time.
Problems are a product of the mind.
It is only when we add thoughts and opinions and feelings to a situation that it can become a problem. If we just experience and accept the situation the way it is, there is no problem. A problem is a failure to see what is actually there. Instead of dealing what is there, one replaces it with two self-contradictory ideas. And then one experiences the unpleasantness of that impossible situation.
