Welcome to today’s session. We all encounter problems—some big, some small—but finding solutions is a skill that everyone possesses. Every challenge you face has been confronted by someone before, which means a solution exists somewhere out there. You just need to crack the code. The good news? You already have the tools to unlock the answers. Let’s get started by grounding ourselves and preparing to break through our own barriers.

Why Problems Dominate Our Minds

It’s natural for problems to feel overwhelming. When a particular issue arises, it becomes the center of our attention, filling our thoughts and emotions. But what seems like a burden is actually a hidden superpower. Your brain, in its effort to help, gathers all the pieces of information in one place, forcing you to confront the problem head-on. The key is to understand how to categorize and approach these issues effectively.

The Eight Pillars of Problem Categories

Most problems can be grouped into one of eight distinct categories, or “problem pillars”:

  1. Physical Health
  2. Mental Health
  3. Relationships
  4. Work
  5. Finances
  6. Setbacks or Failures
  7. Unfair Treatment
  8. Boredom or Lack of Fulfillment

The first step is to pinpoint which category your problem falls into. This might be difficult, but acknowledging the existence of the problem is crucial. Acceptance doesn’t mean giving up. It means recognizing where you stand so that your energy can be channeled toward finding a solution rather than lingering on what could have been done differently.

The Power of the Right Framework: Simplifying the Approach

We came across a fascinating problem-solving model used in business called the Cynefin Framework. The name may sound unusual, but it’s rooted in a Welsh word meaning “habitat” or “place of belonging.” To solve any problem, you first need to understand its habitat. Let’s explore the four main types of problems defined by this framework:

  1. Simple Problems: These are straightforward issues with clear solutions. Think of them like following a recipe—just apply the right answer.
  2. Complicated Problems: These are more complex but still manageable. The solution may not be obvious, but with some research or the help of an expert, you can crack the code.
  3. Complex Problems: These are the true brain-teasers. You can only discover the solution through trial and error. Expect to fail a few times before finding the path that works for you. Success here is iterative—try, test, adjust.
  4. Chaotic Problems: These are full-blown crises, where everything feels out of control. During chaotic times, logic often takes a backseat to survival instincts. Your first goal is to stabilize the situation and move out of the “freeze” mode into action.

Choosing the Right Approach for You

This framework might not fit every situation perfectly, and that’s okay. It’s a guide, not a rulebook. Your goal is to find a method that energizes and motivates you. Whether you’re dealing with a minor setback or a life-altering crisis, remember that categorizing the problem is the first step. You’ve solved countless challenges before, and every time you pushed through, you ignited a spark of confidence and validation.

Think about a time you conquered a problem that once seemed insurmountable. Remember the sense of triumph, the fire it lit inside you. That’s the fuel of resilience. Every problem solved is a testament to your strength and resourcefulness.

The Hero Within You

You might not see yourself as a hero, but every time you push forward despite obstacles, you’re proving otherwise. The world’s greatest stories aren’t written about perfect people—they’re about ordinary individuals who summon extraordinary strength in the face of adversity.

You have that strength. The greater the obstacle, the greater the glory in overcoming it.

A Reminder: You Have the Solution

No matter how difficult or complex the problem may seem right now, the solution is out there. It’s waiting for you to uncover it. Remember: every struggle you face is an opportunity to refine your skills and build resilience. You’ve got this. Believe it.

Until next time, keep cracking those codes and finding the answers that move you forward. We’ll see you back here tomorrow.
