Think 'Big Picture'

"You can't solve a problem on the same level it was created. You have to rise above it to the next level." - Albert Einstein

Often, when we encounter a problem in our personal or professional lives, we tend to look for a solution where the problem or issue was discovered, instead of stepping outside of our immediate area of focus and look at each problem from a 'big picture' point of view. We tend to spend a long time searching for a solution asking 'inside the box' type of questions, when solution can only be found using global way of thinking, looking outside of the box. Solutions to many issues we uncover will remain undiscovered, with us simply patching the problem vs. actually solving it, unless we change our approach to problem solving. Don't look for a quick and easy solutions as they will not address the core issue that you may be dealing with at any given time.  Look for the right solution using 'big picture' way of thinking, be patient, and ask right questions with long-term solution in mind.
