Conflict’s a GOOD 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 Dewey

Conflict’s a GOOD Thing

“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.”
