If each problem is part of a greater problem, it also means that each problem is composed of many smaller problems. It turns out that decomposing a problem in many smaller problems — each of them more specific than the original — can also provide greater insights about it.
Breaking the problem down, (making it more specific) is especially useful if you find the problem overwhelming or daunting.
Some of the typical questions you can ask to make a problem more specific are: “What are parts of this?” or “What are examples of this?”.
Just as in ‘chunking up’, word substitution can also come to great use here. The class of words that are useful here are hyponyms: words that are stricter in meaning than the given one. (E.g. two hyponyms of ‘car’ are ‘minivan’ and ‘limousine’). WordNet can also help you finding hyponyms.
Another avenue to explore is your management team!
When you are at the point that looking at the problem is just making it worse, do you have someone that you can go to for help?
In Real Estate CONSTANT support is almost MANDATORY!
How will you move yourself into production if there is no one there that can give you the tools, guidance and motivation?
I'm not talking "Rah-Rah-Rah, everything's great now go get'em!" kind of stuff. But real, provable, duplicateable systems and programs that WORK!
So, on the fourth day of Real Estate, Amanda gave to me...A break down of what will work for me!
