As the Year 2009 winds down, I’ll like to leave you with an article I hope you’ll read carefully and then resolve to apply the steps therein; if you put these steps into ACTION, I guarantee you a 2010 loaded with solutions for every problem you will encounter. You can be sure of this, my friend – YOU WILL ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS IN THE NEW YEAR. Make no mistake about that. No amount of wishful thinking and prophetic release would take that away from you, because it’s only natural that problems must come.
However, what will make you stand out of the crowd of people who are swallowed up by life’s challenges is the simple application of the steps herein exposed.
We all face problems in our life. The only difference is your reaction to the problems. Looking at problems positively will make a world of difference in dealing with them. Do not view problems as obstacles to your growth. Problems are challenges in our life. They are opportunities for growth. That’s my psychology.
Here are the 7 steps to solving problems in 2010:
1. Be calm: Do not allow negative emotions such as fear to frighten you when you are encountering a problem. Stay calm and collected. A positive mindset will allow you to look at a problem fully and clearly.
2. Look at the problem carefully (Analysis): Closely examine the sources of the problem and gather enough information about the subject. Find out more about it from experienced people. Identify those that are beyond your control and find ways to tackle those you can deal with.
3. Take a break: When you are stuck, get away from it and have a break. Allow your mind to clear its clutter.
4. Find a solution: Based on the information that you have collected in the previous stage, look at ways to overcome the problem. Always find a simple solution to a complicated problem.
5. From the known to the unknown: Find out from your previous experience if you can use it to solve the present problem. Start with what you know about what to do and move on to the unknown.
6. The best solution: A solution should be beneficial to you and to others. Look at the solution impartially. You may not find the right answer, just look for a suitable solution
7. Action: Carry out the steps to solve the problem. Review the actions taken at regular intervals. Revise and make adjustment whenever necessary.
For each problem that you are able to find a solution, you will achieve a higher level of satisfaction and happiness
So, Welcome to Year 2010 – Bring It On.
