Productive Problem Solving
from Pause Purpose Play · host Michaela Thomas
This episode focuses on how a lack of problem-solving can get you stuck going around in circles in your life, and your relationship, but even if you’re not in a relationship, this episode is still for you. I will tell you about getting started, continuing and completing problem-solving, guiding you through a step by step approach to productive problem solving, if you stay with me to the end of the episode. I know you have lots to do, but if you keep addressing your problems the wrong way, you’ll have even less time to do those things. You can't solve your problems when you're overwhelmed, exhausted and stuck. - Hands up if you've kept going in an argument with your partner long after any chance of resolving things. - Hands up if you've kept thinking about something you NEED to solve, and it just goes around and around in your head. - Hands up if you feel so overwhelmed and anxious by the problem that you don't even START to find a resolution. - Hands up if you often don't even notice how much time you've wasted on trying to figure something out. Imagine how your relationship would be if you could approach your problems together.
