The Problem You Can’t Define is Now Three Problems

It contrasts Seth Godin’s shortest post.

Ideally, you should first have a good definition of the problem you hope to solve. Then find a solution for it.

If you cannot define it, Godin affirms that you now have two problems. But, that’s not the case.

You now have three problems.

1. Defining the problem
2. Discovering if the problem has been well defined — the bulk of the work.
3. Finding its solution.

One way to start solving this problem is through writing.

The more you write, the clearer your thinking, the easier it becomes to gravitate towards good solutions.
