Become a better problem solver
Recently I attended a conference and one of the guest speakers talked about 'How to become a better problem solver'. I would like to share some of his insights that made so much sense to me and really changed my approach to problems. Here we go:
  1. Choose a positive mindset. Rephrase the problem as a challenge and say it out loud. It makes such a difference in how you see the "problem" when you hear yourself talking about it as a challenge. It unleash motivation and energy to tackle it. Then just do it.
  2. See and accept that problems prepare you for your purpose, for you calling, for a next season in your life. They do not just happen. There is a reason behind every "problem". Look at them as an opportunity. We learn more from difficult times than good times.
  3. Ask for wisdom. God gives wisdom liberally and without approach - James 1:5.
  4. Ask others for help. Smart people have learned to ask for help. Asking others says something about your own humility and makes others feel important and valued.
  5. Lastly, face reality and accept it. Admit that there is a problem. Do not wish it away, do not ignore it, to not postpone it. It will not disappear if you dig your head in the ground like an ostrich. Face it.
