Problem solving is solving any problem systematically at low cost. The thinking needed for systematic problem solving applies to solving any problem.
It is an open ended discipline of study for solving problems in academic or daily life not randomly but systematically and efficiently at low cost using a rich set of abstract tools and techniques.
These powerful tools and techniques are created from experience analysis and abstraction of usable resources spread over many subjects such as Management, Computer Science, Maths and so on. This approach enables us to apply a technique to solve a problem in Maths as efficiently as a complex business problem.
Problem solving concepts: general concepts for enriching daily life.
Problem solving principles: form the heart of the discipline.
Problem solving techniques: help to solve difficult problems quickly and elegantly.
Problem solving approaches: these are few but form the most powerful resource.
Problem solving tools: are many and of varied power.
Problem solving skills: what are the essential problem solving skills and how to enhance the skills are discussed here.
Critical thinking: is an essential element for creating new ideas.
Problem solving in Maths: produces elegant solutions in quick time.
Relationships: Solving relationship problems.
Real life problem solving: Help in solving varieties of real life problems through concepts and case stories.

Receiving marketing calls from mobile service providers, insurance companies and other agencies is part of our lives. Any time during your day, you might receive a sales call you don't want but can't avoid. It is a necessary evil associated with modern civilization focused on selling...
In a problem that looks simple but somehow wrong and violates the commonly known concepts, power of abstraction may often overcome the apparently unknown and uncertain state and helps to reach the elegant solutions. On the way to the solution, usually a higher level rich concept is created the precise form of which was hidden just around the corner...
All things in nature are in proportions that we accept and have become used to. Mimicking nature we build our things that also follow rough proportional relationships that we are not always explicitly aware. But when such a proportional relationship is violated outright we might feel something is wrong, if we have the principle of disproportion imbued in us.
What to gift is a problem that bothered me for long years. On social occasions giving gift has become a businesslike activity. Fully managed procedures, not much of a bother and decision making involved. Sometimes though an occasion arises out of the blue when you won't know what to do...
Some men need to pursue women in order to keep the show running, to enjoy the thrill of chase, to feel the surge and the adrenaline rush. From a more scientific perspective, in some men the levels of dopamine (feel good hormone) is elevated while pursuing a woman, hence the chase...
The entities involved in interaction of inverses may be a tangible object, such as a large 90 litre toughened plastic container of drinking water, it may be an object that you can't easily touch and see, such as Oxygen gas, or it can be a strong emotion such as anger, or it can even be such a simple thing as a mathematical variable $x$...
We expect all things around us to be in proportion. The room where we sleep should not be too high or too low for maintaining our sleeping comfort. The road we walk on should be of same level all the way. These comfortable ranges are in proportion to our human body size and all normal human movement aspects...
Principle of persistence says, try once more, don't give up. But would you try the same way next time? Is there any other option? This is Principle of exploration. We always search for more options when in a bind. Some option stays invisible. It is our job to bring it to light and use it...
All things change. This is nothing new. But the change itself may be considered an important entity to be used as resource for efficient problem solving in various areas of activity and thought. In particular, Change analysis technique may aid you to solve your problem faster at less cost...
In a set of components each having multiple entities, identify the base to be equalized; identify the target value to be equalized to and equalize the bases of each component in the set to establish direct relationship between the other entities...
