Problems....!!! We are all closely related to this word "Problem". It is a part and parcel of our life. Each day we wake up and face some or the other problems. It can be small/big but the thing is we need to focus on finding the correct solution and not on the Problem. As focusing on problems can only lead to failure and disappointment. The way we see the problem matters a lot.
I mean if you stand closer to a mountain, you may feel it's very huge, you cannot see anything on the other side because of the mountain. You may also feel like that's the end of the world. But if we stand a little bit away from the same mountain it will appear smaller. You can also see many beautiful things around it and also find a way, which will definitely help you to reach the other side of the mountain easily. Similarly don't allow the problems to eat all the space in your mind. Instead stay open, keep the problems aside and allow the mind to keenly observe the surroundings and it will find the solution on its own.
Now let's see the another verse of problem i.e Analysing a problem. What does this mean? "Analysing a problem". Well it means most of our problems become more complicated or it never ends because we execute without analysing the actual problem and most importantly we never try to find the root cause of the problem. We also have one special habit since childhood I.e we always think there is no problem from my side. But let me tell you most of the time 90% of the problem arises because of us. The root is always within us. We people do two mistakes when faced with problems - We don't accept that the problem is within us and start looking sincerely for someone to blame and secondly we are always in a hurry to solve the problem i.e we want the problem to be solved right away.
The first one is never going to solve anything it can only stress you and the second one is going to add few more problems along with the current ones.
Here's a story for you which will definitely make you to understand the value of analysing a problem correctly before acting upon it.
A man was worried as he thought his wife has got some problem with her hearing.
He had to say many times to get her response.
But he felt hesitant to directly ask her wife without actually confirming about the problem.
So he went to a doctor and explained the problem to him.
The doctor asked the man to call out his wife or ask something from a distance of about 50feet and check whether she is responding or not.
If she is not responding, go closer to her by 10 feet and check by calling her or by asking something and repeat this process untill she could hear you.
The man went home and saw her wife cooking in the kitchen for lunch.
He stood 50 feet away from his wife and asked her "what are you preparing for the lunch today?"
He didn't get any response.
He went 10feet ahead and again asked the same question. He didn't get any reply.
He repeated the same process two more times but he didn't get any answer or response from his wife.
She continued her cooking.
Now fifth time the man went closer to his wife and asked her again the same question.
Now she could hear him and she said with a smile "Oh my dear husband this is the fifth time I'm answering you that I'm cooking tomato soup and chicken fry for the lunch."
Hearing this, the man was shocked and realized that the problem was with him not with his wife. :)
The end of the story was little bit funny but that was a horrible shock for the man who was damn confident about the fact that he can never be deaf, the problem is only with his wife. 😀
Here are some effective problem solving tips which you can go through to lead a stress free life.
1. Be clear and analyse and try to understand the problem.
2. Don't be afraid and do not stop by just looking at the problem. Stay calm and head towards the process of finding the right solution.
3. Don't blame anyone. Blaming is only going to be a waste of time and energy.
4. List out the different possibilities so that even if one option fails you will be ready with the next one.
5. Never dare to avoid problems as the smaller ones may come back to you one day and take up your almost unimaginable time and energy.
6. Take your time, work slowly and steadily on your problems.
7. Don't stress yourself as you are going to face only two types of situations in your life because of the problems i.e -
* Problems which will have solutions.. In this case why to worry if you are going to have a solution.
* Problems which will have no solution.. In this case you have to face it strongly and accept it by hoping "Every cloud has silver lining." :)
