Problem Solving in 60 Minutes?

80% of solving a problem is simply making a decision.

Most people stay stuck not because the problem is difficult —
but because they delay choosing what to do.

Here’s my 60-minute framework to break through any problem.
Fast. Focused. Clear.

⏰ Minutes 0–10: Define the real problem

What we think is the issue… usually isn’t.
Clarity here can save you weeks of wasted energy.

⏰ Minutes 10–20: Break it down

What’s in your control? Where does it actually get stuck?
Suddenly, it feels manageable.

⏰ Minutes 20–35: Brainstorm solutions

Dump every idea. Don’t filter. Don’t judge.
Look for patterns, combinations, and fresh angles.

⏰ Minutes 35–50: Choose your path

Ask yourself:
→ Can I realistically do this?
→ Can I do it fast?
→ Will it solve the root cause?

⏰ Minutes 50–60: Take action

Pick one small step. Do it today.
No overthinking. Just move.

I use this every time I feel stuck —
whether it’s a product decision, a team issue, or a strategic question.

A problem clearly stated is a problem half solved.

Give yourself 60 minutes,
and you’ll be surprised how much power you actually have.
