Difference between focussing on problems and focussing on solutions

The Difference between Focus on Problems, and Focus on Solutions

The Difference between Focus on Problems, and Focus on Solutions" When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity. (Ink won't flow down to the Writing surface). Russians also had the same problem too, when they launch cosmonauts in space.In order to solve this problem, Americans hired Andersen Consulting (Accenture today). It took them one decade and 12 million dollars.

They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C .

But the Russians they did not scratch their head like Americans. They neither spent money nor time. They used a bit of commonsense. " Russians used pencils instead of pens..."


Success can be achieved thru repeated failures and introspection
