It takes practice, but problem solving is a skill you already use every day for large and small problems. However, to solve a problem, you must first identify what the problem is. From there, you can follow steps to solve your problem. Exercising our problem-solving skills helps us lead happier and healthier lives.

CHAPTER TWO

HOW TO SOLVE PROBLEMS

How do you know if you have a problem? If theres a gap between what is and what should be, then theres a problem. Sometimes problems are personal. Then the gap lies between what you have and what you want. Once you recognize theres a problem, you can begin the problem-solving process.

The first step is identifying the problem. It may seem and think about the possible consequences, or results, of each of your options. The fourth step is choosing a solution and trying it out. The fifth and final step is to reflect, or look back, on the results. If you didnt like the result of your solution, you may need to repeat steps four and five.

CHAPTER THREE

IDENTIFYING PROBLEMS

The first step of problem solving is often overlooked. If youre in a hurry to find a solution, you might want to jump ahead and begin trying different options. Unfortunately, this can lead to even more problems! Before you look for a solution, its important to understand and identify your problem.

Take the time to get to the root of your problem. Otherwise, you might work on solving the wrong problem by focusing on a instead of the true cause. This usually happens when people assume, or think they know but dont, that they understand a problem. Instead of assuming, take a scientific approach. Use observations and facts to identify the problem. This will help you clearly understand what needs to be done. As you work to identify the problem, there are a number of tips and methods that can help.

KEEP CALM

How do you feel when faced with a problem? Maybe youre having trouble learning a new swimming stroke or you keep forgetting to bring your lunch to school.

Meditation can be as simple as paying attention to your breathing. Close your eyes and slowly breathe in and out five times. Do you feel calmer and more focused?

Its easier to think clearly when youre calm. Try taking deep breaths or to work through your frustration. Find a quiet place or just take some quiet time to yourself so you can listen to your thoughts. If you feel very upset, you might need to take a break before identifying your problem.

When youre calm and ready to identify your problem, focus on the facts. Try not to blame others. Instead, think about your own actions, which are the only things you can control.

CHAPTER FIVE

FINDING THE WORDS

In order to be calm, you may need to acknowledge, or recognize and accept, the feelings youre having. This is especially true if you have a social problem, like a disagreement with a friend or family member. Acknowledging your feelings takes self-awareness, or knowledge of your thoughts and emotions.

It can be hard to put your feelings into words. The more you know about emotions, the easier it will be to identify them. When youve acknowledged your feelings, you can try to understand what caused you to have them. Try to fill in the sentence, I feel ____ when _____ happens.

Acknowledging your feelings brings you one step closer to identifying the problem. Youve identified a problem when you can put it into words. Youll need to the problem as clearly as you can.
