When I don't fully understand a problem, whether it be in a work issue/life issue/ or academic issue, what I do is organize everything in my head. I break apart the sitation, I very quickly determine a goal or at least what needs to happen to make the problem not a problem, then I think about the ways to do it and weigh the risk and rewards of each scenario. After I determine the best course of action, I think about how to execute the plan 100%.
If I fail in any of those parts and not realize I failed until it is too late, then I go back in my head and figure out where I went wrong and how I could improve.
I use this thought process for situations ranging from whether I should get hot choclate or coffee to responding in an emergancy situation such as a power equipment accident or an injury.
