Problem Solving Quotes

As much as we may want to withdraw into a world of pure problem solving, we have to acknowledge that the most successful architectures are the ones you can actually convince someone to implement Picture Quote #1

I used to look at composing music as problem solving. But as I get older, it’s not about problem solving anymore. There are no solutions, because there are no problems. You just turn the tap and it flows out Picture Quote #1

Problem solving, and I don’t mean algebra, seems to be my life’s work. Maybe it’s everyone’s life’s work Picture Quote #1

It is not stress that kills us. It is effective adaptation to stress that allows us to live Picture Quote #1

One barrier... is the impoverishment of classroom language, the failure to cultivate a common vocabulary about inquiry, explanation, argument and problem solving Picture Quote #1

I’ve been amazed at how often those outside the discipline of design assume that what designers do is decoration. Good design is problem solving Picture Quote #1

Innovation is hard because solving problems people didn’t know they had and building something no one needs look identical at first Picture Quote #1

Mental acuity of any kind comes from solving problems yourself, not from being told how to solve them Picture Quote #1

Solving problems is a practical skill like, let us say, swimming. We acquire any practical skill by imitation and practice. Trying to swim, you imitate what other people do with their hands and feet to keep their heads above water, and, finally, you learn to swim by practicing swimming. Trying to solve problems, you have to observe and to imitate what other people do when solving problems, and, finally, you learn to do problems by doing them Picture Quote #1

We’re taught to do things the right way. But if you want to discover something that other people haven’t, you need to do things the wrong way. Initiate a failure by doing something that’s very silly, unthinkable, naughty, dangerous. Watching why that fails can take you on a completely different path. It’s exciting, actually. To me, solving problems is a bit like a drug. You’re on it, and you can’t get off Picture Quote #1

Be warned that being an expert is more than understanding how a system is supposed to work. Expertise is gained by investigating why a system doesn’t work Picture Quote #1

There is no reason to believe that bureaucrats and politicians, no matter how well meaning, are better at solving problems than the people on the spot, who have the strongest incentive to get the solution right Picture Quote #1

We are at a critical point where rapid change is forcing us to look not just to new ways of solving problems but to new problems to solve Picture Quote #1

All we have to do to create the future is to change the nature of our conversations, to go from blame to ownership, and from bargaining to commitment, and from problem solving to possibility Picture Quote #1

In my experience, the worst thing you can do to an important problem is to discuss it Picture Quote #1

Writing is not magic. It’s a craft, a process, a set of steps. As with any process, things sometimes break down. Even in a good story, the writer runs into problems. So the act of writing always includes problem solving Picture Quote #1

I now know that I learn by solving problems as they arise. Rarely do we learn significant lessons, or significantly improve, any other way Picture Quote #1

Some things are sent to test us. Clearly you must be good at problem solving if you are being set tough exams Picture Quote #1

When you’re trying to solve a problem on a new product type, you become completely focused on problems that seem a number of steps removed from the main product. That problem solving can appear a little abstract, and it is easy to lose sight of the product Picture Quote #1

It is through solving problems correctly that we grow spiritually. We are never given a burden unless we have the capacity to overcome it. If a great problem is set before you, this merely indicates that you have the great inner strength to solve a great problem. There is never really anything to be discouraged about, because difficulties are opportunities for inner growth, and the greater the difficulty the greater the opportunity for growth Picture Quote #1

It is a misuse of our power to take responsibility for solving problems that belong to others Picture Quote #1

Justice of the world is in its creativity, in solving problems, in our activity and struggle. While I am alive there is the possibility to act, to strive for happiness, this is justice Picture Quote #1

Listen to the people who are talking about how to fix what’s wrong, not the ones who just work people into a snit over the problems. Listen to the people who have ideas about how to fix things, not the ones who just blame others Picture Quote #1

Approach each new problem not with a view of finding what you hope will be there, but to get the truth Picture Quote #1

If there is no way out, the best course of action is to find a way further in Picture Quote #1

The greater the difficulty the more glory in surmounting it. Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests Picture Quote #1

It’s so much easier to suggest solutions when you don’t know too much about the problem Picture Quote #1
