How does your mind operates when facing a difficult task or problems?

Problems and challenges bring into our minds, tension.  Human mind typically goes through a series of cognitive processes when faced with a problem:

1. Recognition: First, the mind recognizes that there is a problem or challenge that needs to be addressed. This often involves perceiving and understanding the problem's context.

2. Define the Problem: Next, the mind works to define the problem more precisely. This might involve breaking it down into smaller, more manageable parts and clarifying the goals or desired outcomes.

3. Generate Ideas: Once the problem is well-defined, the mind begins to generate potential solutions or ideas. This often involves creative thinking and brainstorming.

4. Evaluate Options: After generating ideas, the mind assesses and evaluates the potential solutions. It considers factors like feasibility, effectiveness, and consequences.

5. Select a Solution: A decision is made to select the most promising solution from the options considered. This decision-making process may involve weighing pros and cons.

6. Implement: With a chosen solution in mind, the mind begins to plan and execute the steps necessary to solve the problem. This could involve gathering resources, making a plan, and taking action.

7. Monitor and Adjust: While implementing the solution, the mind continually monitors progress and adjusts as needed. If the chosen solution isn't working as expected, the mind may revisit earlier stages of problem-solving to consider alternative approaches.

8. Learn from the Experience: Finally, after the problem is resolved, the mind often reflects on the experience, learning from it for future problem-solving situations.

It's important to note that problem-solving is not always a linear process, and individuals may move back and forth between these stages as they work through a problem. 

Additionally, the effectiveness of problem-solving can vary depending on an individual's cognitive abilities, knowledge, and experience.

Sweet Spot

How do you create a digital strategy that involves customers in an energized social community?  How do you create an engaged, active “go-to” website?   Prophet's David Aaaker says, You must change the orientation of marketing from selling the offering, the brand, and firm to becoming an active partner with a shared interest program around a customer’s “sweet spot.” A sweet spot reflects customers’ “thinking and doing” time, beliefs and values, activities and passions, possessions or places they treasure. Ideally, it would be a part of, if not central to, their self-identity and lifestyle and reflect a higher-order value proposition, much beyond the benefits provided by the offering. To illustrate, Pampers went beyond diapers by creating the Pampers Village community that provides a “go to” place for all issues relating to babies and child care.
