Any advice is greatly appreciated :lol:
Steps you take to solve your problems

Solving problems can be a demanding job for many, but if the problem is thought out carefully, and viewed in different ways, like negative and positive effects of a certain solution then this approach will work best for me.

When I have a problem I try to think about possible solutions instead of getting angry, or all worked up in it. It can be very frustrating depending on the problem that I'm having. However, I can always find the best solution to this issues by thinking the problem thoroughly and finding out the best ways to get the job done,thinking first is the most important step to take. Then planning, and consequently solving the problem.

For instance, I decide to plan on a possible solution about a camping trip. My problem is that my car has broken down, and I will have to take it to the Garage to be repaired. However, it will take about three days to get the work done, and I will be leaving the next day. So what do I do? I will take the three steps mentioned above. First I think, second I plan, and eventually I solve this problem. I think that if I rent a car it will be a good idea, but there is a negative effect which is that I'll have to spend extra money, so this solution is not an effective one. Then I think of another option, if I invite a group of friends over it will give me the advantage of carpooling, and that way I won't need to spend money.


To sum up, there are many ways to solve a problem, and everyone deals with their dilemmas in different ways. No matter which way you decide to solve the difficulty you are facing, is a good idea to focus on the solution rather than the problem that way we can get a better result, as a consequence of careful planning. If the right steps are taken, then the problem will not seem as enormous. The main and most important thing to remember is, that getting angry will not take us anywhere.
