We often rush to fix what is broken because action feels productive, and most of us are wired with a bias for action, which has generally served us well. If you want more than a quick fix, however, slowing down long enough to deeply understand the problem, and maybe even the problem beneath the problem, will serve you well. The better we can name what is actually wrong, the closer we get to building something that lasts. Before jumping right in to fix the next problem, at work, at home, or even in your relationships, spend more time asking questions and really exploring the problem.
