Nowadays, people have been asking me questions and then answering their own questions themselves. I mean, if they already think that they know the answer, then there's no need to ask right? And even if they ask just because they want to confirm that their answers are right, then be courteous enough to admit any mistake if my answer is the right one.
I do get agitated sometimes over this issue. Perhaps I really need to develop more patience and be more gentle. Today, I shall post up 3 steps to finding an answer to a question.
Step 1. Know & Understand the Question
For e.g. Is a Powerpoint Presentation required for the Property Maintenance Module Project?
Step 2. Figure Out the Possible Answers to the Question
In this case, the possible answers are very straightforward. It is 50-50 chance that you either get the answer right or the answer wrong. So, its either a YES or a NO.
Step 3. Source for All Possible Leads to the Correct Answer
Here, you can do the following:
A. You can ask a friend
B. You can ask a teacher
C. You can figure it out yourself
If you ask a friend, you can choose to follow his/her answer or disagree with him/her. Ultimately, the answer will still be a 50-50.
Should you try to figure it yourself, then follow what your heart tells you. Again, the answer will still be a 50-50.
But if you ask a teacher, the answer is definitely 100% correct. Hence, the solution to the problem is to find out the answer from the one who gave the problem.
I don't proclaim myself to be an expert in everything that I do. Hence, the reason why I am still learning even till this day. Given a problem, I will usually figure out the answer myself (with faith), discuss the answer with my friends (process of edifying/rebuking) and then confirm with the person who gave the problem (revelation).
Note: All problems can be solved. There are no problems that can't be solved. Every problems comes with solutions. Hence, problems and solutions are inseparable.
Hope this little post have inspired everyone who still visits my blog. =)
