Have you ever been stuck on a problem? You tried many ways to fix it, but nothing worked. Then, you decide to ask someone for help. As you start talking about the problem, you suddenly see the answer. And the person listening to you sees it too.

I've noticed that sometimes I don't want to go through the trouble of explaining everything about the problem to myself. I wait until I can ask someone else. But this can delay finding the solution.

So, remember to talk through the problem with yourself. Detailing everything about the issue often helps you see the solution clearly. This step of explaining things to yourself is very powerful. Before asking for help, try to understand and talk about the problem on your own. You might find the answer quicker than you think.

This way of solving problems teaches us to rely on ourselves and think deeply. By taking time to explain the problem fully, we use our thinking skills better and can find answers that we might not get from others. So, the next time you're stuck, talk to yourself about it first. You may be surprised by what you discover.
