“Problems are our best friends”...

Problems are our best friends, because they really inspire ideas and ways to create. This lesson was driven home to me while shooting Deadpool. Every time the studio took money away from our budget, we replaced whatever set piece we lost with character. Eventually that became the hallmark and defining characteristic of that property. People don’t remember saving-the-world kind of nonsense. They remember what he said, or how he reacted to a moment. 

— Ryan Reynolds (Actor/producer of Deadpool 1 and 2, and writer of Deadpool 2. Ps. It took Reynolds a decade to get Deadpool made, as the studios were skeptical)

I don’t know about you, but I find perspective easier to achieve in hindsight. While I’m in the middle of a “problem” I’m typically stressed, Lol. Just sayin’ ;) Hugs. XO
