I’m hoping @DrJoeAbah and @segalink will chip in on this discussion I’m creating on the steps to fixing problems and how tolerance is crucial. THREAD

@segalink 1. To get a solution to any type of problem, you need at least 4 types of skills:
a.Problem identification
b.Problem analysis & understanding (historical/circumstantial)
c.Solution design
d.Solution implementation

VERY UNLIKELY all 4 skills will reside in a single individual

2. Imagine that all 4 skills reside in 4 different individuals, it is therefore a 5th skill and perhaps, the most important, to be able to bring these 4 people together and give the direction and purpose.

This is what leadership is

3. If these 4 skills reside in 4 individuals and they are in a team, the characteristics of the person with skill (a) will be that he only sees problems. He will be labeled as “negative” but we must understand how to embrace this important skill and use it effectively.

4. Skill (b) will be the “over-analysis” people; the “you think too much, you analyze too much, over thinker”. These are the people who will want to give you a lecture on why and how things got to where they are and again, this skill is absolutely crucial for the next person.
