Solutions and Problems are Friends

How to find a solution to a problem?

When we get problems in our lives, we try hard to find solutions to the problems. We often get bogged down with the severity of the problems. Our approach to getting out of unpleasant problem situations is essential.

There are many ways to get rid of life problems. We can find helping guidelines in books on problem-solving. Taking professional help from a coach or consultant is also a good option.

• Problems are common to most of the living beings on the planet. Problems keep coming naturally from various sides.

• Have you ever seen birds stop building nests on the trees due to the fear of storms and rainfalls?

• Have you seen animals stop walking long routes in the jungle in search of water during the dry summer season?

• Have you seen how bushes adapted to live with less water in the deserts?

All these natural habitats teach us that we must not get perturbed by the issues and problems in daily hardships because solutions exist in and around the problems.

Sometimes the problems guide us to find the solutions

Life often teaches us unique lessons on how to cope with problems.

• Have you known the story of Nick Vujicic, who doesn't have hands and legs?

Can you imagine how, Nick Vujicic, a hand and legless human is living a happy life with a beautiful spouse and children? Nick Vujicic is already a global celebrity and influencer speaking to international audiences.

• Nick's classmates in elementary school used to tease him a lot for his abnormal body and disabilities, which he was not responsible for. Nick utilized his imperfect and disabled body to find a solution himself how to move and work.

There is no doubt that Nick outperformed many of us who have perfect bodies and no physical disabilities. It is because Nick didn't give up and built resilience to find a solution to his bodily problems.

In real-world, solutions and problems come in pairs

The real world is a giant laboratory where every living being has been carrying out innumerable experiments during their life span.

I remember an abnormally grown coconut tree in our locality. It had an abrupt staircase-like bending at a specific height. I asked many people including my father about it.

• The reality was that a cruel guy built a strong iron structure obstruction above the young coconut tree at a certain height. The iron structure was present for many years. The coconut tree took a bent growth to avoid the strong iron structure obstruction.

In our lives, we have to adopt well-thought strategies to avoid different obstructions or problems and continue growing with our daily activities in various fields, such as education, training, career, business, relationships, family, etc.

In the business world, predetermined solutions come to solve problems

For an example, a client may ask you (a computer device expert) to give a solution to a problem, such as "I have problems with the graphical proceesor unit or GPU of my computer. It is getting overheated." That means the client asks you to do something so that the temperature of the GPU doesn't go above a certain limit.

• The solution is hidden in the overheating condition of the GPU.

QUESTION: What does lower the temperature of a computer processor?
ANSWER: The cooling fan runs and cools the processors in a computer.

TROUBLESHOOTING: Check whether the fans of the GPU are rotating or not.
SOLUTION: If the fans aren't rotating, then the first probable solution is to open the fans and clean them thoroughly. If it doesn't solve, then replace the fans.

• I often use this technique with my clients, who have already predetermined the solution in their mind, and you are to deliver it.

• But, one must carry out a quick SWOT (strength, weakness, opportunities, and threats) analysis of any problem and the associated solution before actually working to implement the solution!

Imagine the story of Mr. Henry Ford's customers asking for faster horses that could carry them faster to cover large distances. So, Henry Ford had to invent a better alternative to horses!

Investigate around you and discover unique solutions

So, what is the easiest way of getting a solution to a problem?

• Investigate the problem situation

• Carry out a brief or detailed SWOT analysis

In most general cases, a solution comes by nullifying the cause of the problem.

• Plan building a solution

• Carefully implement to build the solution

• Test run the solution several times before delivering it to the clients

In principle, inquisitive observations and thorough investigations help develop solutions to real-world problems.

Closing thoughts

• Don't get panicked with your life and professional problems.

• Life problems may indirectly advise you on how to solve them.

• It may also so happen that you will find a unique solution from within the problems.

• Inquisitive analyses are essential to finding a solution to any problem.

In most cases, solutions and problems seem "very good friends."

These techniques may also work in professional life to serve clients.
