“A brilliant solution to the wrong problem can be worse than no solution at all: solve the correct problem.”
The Hidden Problem That's Killing Your Progress:
Stop Solving the Wrong Problem.
We often misdiagnose what's actually holding us back.
"I need to wake up earlier" --> "I need to go to bed earlier."
"I need to be more productive" --> "I need to eliminate distractions."
"I need more motivation" --> "I need clearer priorities."
This pattern shows up everywhere in our lives - we focus on symptoms rather than causes.
The solution isn't more willpower or fancy productivity hacks.
It's taking a step back and asking:
"What's the actual problem I'm trying to solve?"
When you feel stuck, dig deeper.
The real obstacle is rarely the first one you identify.
Get to the root.
Solve the real problem.
