Thinking outside the box

We're still dealing with that same, pesky problem! Sometimes your way of thinking is in a rut, and you need to expand your list of options. Try thinking about the problem in completely uncharacteristic ways:

What's the solution so obvious that you completely overlooked it?

What's the crazy solution that no one has ever dared to try?

What's the radical, innovative solution that no one has ever thought of before?

What's the solution that's so easy it can't possibly work?

What's the solution that's so difficult that you can't possibly do it?

Is your life full of difficult decisions like these?

What's the underlying issue that you have been avoiding?

This week's theme is problem solving.
