Tips to Improve your Problem solving skills

1. Focus on the solution. Focusing on the problem induces negativity. Develop a solution-oriented mindset, think what the 'answer' could be, rather than lingering on 'what went wrong' and 'who's fault it is'.

2. Define the problem clearly. Ask 5 Whys to define the problem clearly. Repeatedly ask the questions. It gives you the correct root cause.Figuring out the correct root cause is the first step to have the best solution.

3. Look at the bird's eye only. Simplify your problem. Eliminate the unnecessary details.At times, we might overlook the simple solutions and search for complex answers.

4. List out the possible solutions. Come up with all the possible solutions, which might be silly at first. But, at times the silly solutions trigger some great ideas. And remember, "No idea is a bad idea'.
