Tool #5: The Right Mindset, Resources, and Skills to Use When Trying to Solve Problems
We will also teach you a strategic approach to problem-solving
I have tried everything I can, to the point now where what's left inside my brain is not enough to change anything. đââď¸đ
Yeah, you can get stuck like this on problems you meet in school or in your career.
But as we want to keep things going, we can't let this problem be the bottleneck for everything we are doingâwe need to keep going in whatever we are doing with high speed.
And yes, there are other ways we can use to solve these problems, but there is something which, if we didn't realize before, we should know now:
The best way to move past these problems has always been depending more on our perceptionâhow we see these problems.
There are several views you can employ on this, but let us focus on these two for todayâI think they are very important to start with:
First, you should realize you are not the first one to experience this. Whether it's a financial problem, career, or personal problem, since the creation of this planet earth (billions of years ago), there are so many people who might have come close to 100% in having a similar problem like yoursâthere is nothing unique to you.
Second, if there are people who have experienced something like this and you are stuck, why waste your time when you can go and talk to someone who has managed to solve this?
It's simple. If you manage to realize this, then you are good to go.
Now, let's find that guyâhe has stuff to explain to us.
And yeah, before you take this the wrong way, that guy we are talking about also includes information resourcesârecords left behind by another guy who might be dead or just doesn't want to talk to you, like text, video, or pictures. All in all, whatever the form, they should be talking about something similar to what we are experiencing.
Okay, now what will remain as the roadblock in solving this problem is for you to get the resources and the skills to get the "right" resources, skills to use these resources (or skills to talk to that guy if he or she is still alive), and then use the information you have to solve your problem.
In this article, we will discuss more on this and see how you can be competent in these so as to assist you in solving the problems you face. Spoiler alert: It is not just using Google, which can be enough to give the answers to your problemâthere is more.
