Problem Solving Techniques: Learn Steps to Solve Problems

In summary, the first step in problem solving is to identify and define the problem. Common problem solving techniques include brainstorming, breaking the problem down into smaller parts, using a systematic approach, and seeking advice or feedback from others. To improve problem solving skills, one can practice regularly, use different techniques, reflect on the process, and seek feedback. These techniques can be applied to all types of problems and it is important to avoid common mistakes such as jumping to conclusions, ignoring potential solutions, and not seeking feedback from others.

First Rule: Do not look after formal procedure, but look after the ways to organize your mind such a way to be able to invent formal procedure for any thing you want.
Second Rule: forget about first rule.
Third Rule: go back to the first rule. :biggrin:
