“Every problem has a solution”. I have never come across a problem which couldn’t be solved. However, in order to solve a problem, we need two things –

a. Define what the problem is? For example, “I am not happy with my job” is a generalized statement. Detect the root cause; is your reporting manager’s behavior is a problem? Is your inability to cope with the demands of your job a problem? Are the processes and the systems you need to follow to complete your job a problem? Is your compensation a problem? Are you not motivated enough to do your job? Is work-life balance a problem? Often, we combine multiple problems into one and then look for one solution to solve them all. It doesn’t work that way.

b. Take ownership to find a solution to your problem and stay committed until you find a solution. There is a saying, “Problem is not a problem. It is our approach towards the problem that’s the primary cause of the problem”. And, most importantly, it is YOU who need to solve problems of your life...problems that are bothering you. So, take the ownership.

If you are not able to define your problem in less than TEN words and if you don’t take the ownership of resolving it and you still cry about problems in your life...that process is called ranting, playing blame games, spreading negativity, etc.”
― Sanjeev Himachali

“For whatever has happened – always remember – you, yourself, are responsible. Don’t deflect responsibility on someone else – your stars, god(s), enemies or anyone else. Even if they played a role – it was you who brought it upon you through your actions. There is nothing to be gained by blaming someone else. The solution to any problem can be possible only when we take responsibility for it. Admit your mistakes, limitations as well as the lack of knowledge. When you do it – you’ll be on the sure path to find solid, wise as well as lasting solutions to your problems.”
― Mahesh Prabhu, Essentials of Vedic Wisdom for Blissful Living

“Troubleshooting is a form of advance problem solving, which few people excel in performing. Troubleshooting is a logical, systematic search for the source of a problem, where the symptoms of a problem in a complex system can have many possible causes. Problem solvers rely upon prior experience to determine the potential causes, and employ the process of elimination to detect the actual causes of a problem. The troubleshooter must always look for the simplest solution while considering the possibility that there is more than one fault. Every organization needs a person whom is adept at troubleshooting, analyzing, and resolving problem with an ingenious solution, or novel argument. A person who can see multiple sides to any dilemma, and structure a series of useful elucidations for consideration possesses an optimistic nature.”
― Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls
