Are you focused on the problem or the solution?
As I think back over my life and different problems I’ve encountered, I can honestly say that I spent far too much time focused on the problem.
So much of that goes back to the thought process that told me I had to fully understand the problem before I moved forward to find a solution.
But as I’ve read this book by Dr. Selk, I now see that the approach I took in the past only delayed, and sometimes totally derailed, me from getting to the solution.
Focusing quickly on solutions puts us in a frame of mind to find out how to make the situation better instead of staying in the negativity of the problem.
Today as you come across a problem I want you to try this nugget from Dr. Selk.
Give yourself 60 seconds to think about the problem and then ask yourself, “what is the one thing I can do to make this better?”
Put your focus on the solution not the problem!

Evolution of Self!
