The five questions I used to help me decide, prioritize, and solve problems  ↦

Nicholas C. Zakas asks himself these five questions (in order) to make the best decisions possible:

  1. Is this really a problem?
  2. Does the problem need to be solved?
  3. Does the problem need to be solved now?
  4. Does the problem need to be solved by me?
  5. Is there a simpler problem I can solve instead?

Read on to find out why these questions have become the basis for his problem solving approach.
