The plant's leaves are drooping, which means it needs water. But the watering can is empty, so there is nothing to pour yet. Look around calmly: the tap is right there on its post, so you fill the can first and water the plant after. A problem becomes easy when you cut it into small steps and do them in the right order.

Examples

  • In the morning you can only find one shoe: instead of getting upset, you think about where you took them off yesterday and go and look there.
  • Your pencil point breaks in the middle of a drawing: you fetch the sharpener, sharpen it, and go back to your picture.

Key takeaways

  • First say what the problem is and what is missing.
  • The answer is often close by, then work one step at a time.
