Default Difference between Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Solutions

Difference between Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Solutions

Case 1


When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space,they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity (ink won't flow down to the writing surface). To solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12million.

They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range frombelow freezing to over 300 degrees C.

And what did the Russians do...??


They used a pencil.

Case 2


One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the case of the empty soapbox, which happened in one of Japan 's biggest cosmeticscompanies.

The company received a complaint that a consumer hadbought a soapbox that was empty. Immediately theauthorities isolated the problem to the assembly line, which transported all the packaged boxes of soap tothe delivery department. For some reason, one soapbox went through the assembly line empty. Management asked its engineers to solve the problem.

Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the soapboxes that passedthrough the line to make sure they were not empty. No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent a whoopee amount to do so.

But when a rank-and-file employee in a small companywas posed with the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays, etc., but instead came outwith another solution.

He bought a strong industrial electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan on, and
as each soapbox passed the fan, it simply blew theempty boxes out of the line.

Always look for simple solutions.


Devise the simplest possible solution that solves the problems

Always Focus on solutions & not on problems


So at the end of the day the thing that really matters

is HOW ONE LOOKS INTO THE PROBLEM,

Mere perceptions can solve the tough problems....
