Answer:
Problem Solving Skills are in High Demand
1. Reinforce a positive outlook. Smile. The first thing you should do when faced with a difficult problem is to start with a positive outlook. Sometimes our first reaction is to fear uncertainty. That’s pretty natural. However, I’ve realized over the years it is the unknown that has given us, as individuals, the curiosity to try new things and aim for the stars. Don’t fear the problem itself. Look at it as an opportunity to learn something new and to test your ability and wit. That is not easy to do with deadlines and pressure, but keeping a positive outlook will go a long way toward making each issue a bit less daunting.
2. Ask questions to understand the problem.
3. Be open-minded. An old saying goes, “If the only tool you have is a hammer, everything becomes a nail.” The way you have done things in the past may not always work for all situations. A hammer may be good for prying nails out of wood and plunging them into wood, but you should not use a hammer to pickup leaves or to unscrew a rusty bolt. There are better tools for these things. In life, I find there are often many solutions to a given problem. Some are more effective than others. Some are more appropriate than others. When faced with a difficult problem, do not assume you know the answer from the start. Don't jump to conclusions. Stop for a second and take time to understand what the problem or question is truly about before applying a solution or answer. Be open to all possibilities. Do not presume everything is a nail.
4. Look down on a problem. Sometimes the problem we are trying to solve isn’t the real problem at all. It could be a symptom and not the cause. In order to solve a problem, we may need to take the perspective of looking down on it. From a different vantage point, we may discover that the problem we have focused on is in fact part of a bigger problem – one which would require a completely different approach. Before attempting to put a solution in place, seek out the “real” problem. Once you understand the problem in its entirety and context, only then can you determine the best course of action.
5. Define the problem completely.
6. Take bite-sized chunks. Would you eat a whole pizza in one mouthful? Probably not. In a similar fashion, some problems are simply too big to chew all at once. A useful technique for solving complex problems is drilling-down into the detail and continuing until each piece becomes manageable. Once you have a set of manageable pieces, solve each individually. When a given problem is broken into bite-sized chunks, it is easier to see the patterns, symptoms, tools, and techniques to apply and the actions that need to take place.
7. Think logically.
8. Find similarities.
9. Mistakes happen. Problem solving and making mistakes often go hand-in-hand. Sometimes in order to find the best solution to a given problem, we have to go through a hundred bad solutions first. Thomas Edison was a master of this process. For every invention he developed, he made a thousand tries at things that did not work. The most important thing here is to remember that mistakes are okay. Don’t get discouraged. Don’t get frustrated. Use the mistakes as stepping stones to get to the desired solution. If you have gone through a hundred options to no avail, you have found a hundred ways not to do something rather than one hundred failures.
10. Keep emotions in check.
11. Focus on the end game.
12. Take notes and record your progress.
13. Challenge your assumptions.
14. If you don't find success, start over. Problems and obstacles are not always solved on the first pass, or second or third pass. This is a lot like college transfer. It is a difficult challenge to address from my vantage point. Multiple iterations may be necessary in solving any problem. Testing solutions will often reveal gaps and issues not addressed through review and from various perspectives. You can step back and restart any steps previously mentioned. Solutions can evolve and improve.
15. Be honest and realistic.
