Show’s Main Idea – Our problems are real. No reasonable person would argue this point. There are objective measures and observations that any rational and observant individual can make about a person or an issue. The tension comes when you give someone, who describes the problem, the authority to bring the solution. This process could be a false continuum. Study this mindmap as Rick explains the good and bad of this dilemma.
