I rarely use these. It doesn’t mean I don’t love reading posts with sub-headings. Sometimes, I’ll admit to you that all I end up reading of a post are these. I am sure I am not alone in this so choose them well. They may be the only post your audience ever reads. Here is a classic example of powerful sub-headings in a post by my blogging friend Michael Kwan. [...] [...] Use sub-headings Okay, so my first suggestion is hypocritical. I rarely use these.

At the same time, I think a distinction needs to be made with regards to the title: "How to face problems ..." Problems have no mind, they are neutral toward you. People, of course, are often like pitbulls. I think it is important to remember that the big common problems in the world, ie; finances, family, work, are not really like pitbulls, though they can feel that way. I took your title as great though, sort of like a metaphor of things we flip out over in fear. Also, from a writing/blogging standpoint it's one of the most well-crafted pieces I've read in a while.

Pitbulls are bred for nothing more than fighting and protection and should not be allowed as a pet or in a domestic setting at all. They are a danger to all people, and there have been many cases of the "nice" pitbull attacking the owner or worse the family toddler. All animals have had this "nice" attack happen at one time or another, but the pitbull is just one that you are asking for trouble with. A calm demeanor is a good idea and will illicit a better response from not only dogs but also people. Most people mirror the attitude they are given, so if you break the mirror by being nice, calm and cooperative you can win most situations. It's called misdirection and major part of the Art of War.
