6 steps to get problem solving skills

(Short Post😉) Problem-solving is one of the characteristics of the highest values you can have as a developer. Following 6 steps will help you become a master problem-solver.


1. Focus

Focus on the solution, not the problem because you're effectively feeding 'negativity', which in turn activates negative emotions in the brain.

2. Define the problem

By repeatedly asking the question "why" on a problem. and that's how you can find the best solution.

3. Simplify things

Try simplifying your problem by generalizing it. Remove all the details and go back to the basics. Try looking for a really easy, obvious solution first.

4. Use active listening

The best problem solvers are great listeners. Problem-solving requires you to take in a variety of inputs and opinions and carefully analyze them.

5. Think laterally

Try to change your approach and look at things in a new way. 'You cannot dig a hole in a different place by digging it deeper'. Read it Again.

6. Take action

Implement your chosen solution in a planned and deliberate way, and then observe how it is working and decide if further action needs to be taken.

Great points Rahul. Can relate to them. I would like to add Ask Question as another point. Over time I realized, people not asking(Right, wrong, silly doesn't matter) questions cause delays in solving problems.

Good Job!

Great tips! It is really important to solve problems in business for customers, to recieve a feedback for them makes us transform that information into immediate action. More info about knowing your client's opinions by creating a digital coin on MintMe

Good one Rahul.

Also perhaps, an addition that I would make is, learn from history and see how the problem was solved by others before you and see how you can improve.

Good luck with everything!
