It is not the lack of ideas that holds us back,
but the lack of clarity of purpose.
It is not the complexity of the problem that confuses us,
but our inability to define it.
Defining the problem is the first step,
to be able to solve it.
Don’t rush to find the answer,
first make sure,
to ask the right question.
👇 Reminder of the day 👇
-
The first step in solving a problem is to define it clearly and precisely.
Defining the problem requires patience, observation and in-depth analysis.
It involves going beyond the superficial symptoms and getting to the root. It is an uncomfortable and challenging process, as it forces us to question our assumptions and look at things from new perspectives.
However, when the problem is correctly defined, much of the work is already done.
A clear and precise definition of the problem often clears the way to the solution.
