If You’re Not Part Of The Solution, You’re Part Of The Problem

If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.

Without googling or checking reference resources, what do you think this proverb means?

By guessing you are priming your brain for learning, which will help you remember the meaning more easily. It doesn’t matter if your guess is wrong, the key is to exercise your brain by guessing.

Write your guess in the comments below. After you post your guess, go ahead and look it up.

That’s right, I want you to find the answer. Because remember, my job as your teacher is to guide you to the answer. If I just gave you the answer without asking you to do the work, I’d be robbing you of your learning opportunity. No pain, no gain!

    This proverb suggests that it is better to give in and solve a problem than to be stubborn and the problem persists.

    Good Katrin. It also means that if you are not working to find a solution, then you are a source of the problem.
