Robert Nikic: Every Problem Has a Price. Every Problem Pays.

The Rule. Every problem has a price, and every problem pays. The price is what the problem costs you right now, whether you see it or not. The payment is what you collect when you handle it the right way: information, understanding, a second chance you built yourself, and eventually money, time and respect. You can't opt out. You're either paying the price or collecting the payment. There's no third option where the problem politely waits for you. Every day you carry a problem without handling it, you're paying. Every time you handle one properly, you collect.
