The Thinking Behind The Tweet
Sure, problems can be annoying. They are impolite, arriving at the wrong time and place. And it often seems they are visiting the wrong person.
If we find ourselves annoyed when problems arrive, we can look at that annoyance as a decision trigger. We can pull triggers that send bullets that injure ourselves and others. Or, we can take a bit of time to concentrate on our targets and pull more constructive triggers.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
One of the most graphic examples is mob behaviour. A few mob leaders can inspire destruction and pillaging from many...just consider Vancouver's Stanley Cup embarrassment. As Mark Weber says, "If the bet is between People and the Situation, bet on the Situation". [paraphrased]
Betting on Situations is, in essence, betting on people following.
And there's that Spirited philosophy - "Business Contains Only 3 Things: People, Process, & Situations"
To accomplish their dreams, leaders must remember these related things:
Be the role model you want emulated
Anticipate and construct Situations
