There is a lot to be said for just getting your head down and dealing with issues one at the time without spending too much worrying about things that you have no control over. This is a state of mind that I really wish I had adopted years ago as I probably would have made some better decisions.
I find that effective problem solving starts with your mental attitude, it’s not necessarily about being positive, it’s more about being focused on the task in hand and not letting other things distract you until the issue that you are dealing with is resolved. You then move onto the next issue.
This approach is not suitable for all situations but it has its uses.
