If you were one of the 100 women entrepreneurs who joined me at our recent Lioness Enterprise Webinar, you will no doubt have been fascinated to hear our special guest speaker, Bruce Whitfield, quoting a line by Captain Jack Sparrow, the film character from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. In case you missed it, here it is again: “The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem.” I noticed that a large number of women in the audience tweeted this quote immediately, sharing it with their networks. It definitely resonated. How often do we experience a problem and keep doing the same old things to try and solve it - and then we wonder why things never change. Having an inflexible mindset that is not open to new ideas or solutions holds us back, results in expending more effort and energy than is needed, and just ends up in frustration. So once again, to quote Captain Jack, the problem is perhaps your attitude about the problem - so try and change that first.
