Then ask yourself: How can this problem be redefined as a financial problem? A health problem? A time management problem?

Some problems that are really tough to solve via one route will more easily succumb to another approach. A simple perspective change can open up a whole new world of possible solutions. Often we fall into a pattern of being stuck with a single favorite perspective. If all you have is a hammer, then every problem looks like a nail.

When you consider only one perspective, one limited way of defining the problem, you automatically rule out an enormous number of potentially viable solutions. When you use a multi‑perspective problem approach, your odds of success will increase dramatically.

Choose one of your complex problems, and try it for yourself. See what the problem looks like from different angles. To make it easier, consult people who view the world differently. This creates favorable conditions for synergy.
