Is it ongoing? Will it happen again in the future?<\/li><li><strong>Who?<\/strong> Which people are impacted by the problem? Who caused it? Who may know more about it?<\/li><li><strong>Why?<\/strong> Why did the problem occur or why does it continue to occur? Why is the problem important to address?<\/li><li><strong>How?<\/strong> How could you solve the problem? What process should you use?<\/li><li><strong>How much or how many?<\/strong> How big is the problem? How much harm is it causing? How long will it take to solve?<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: The 5W2H method is most effective when you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/career-development\/5w2h-analysis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">answer only the most appropriate questions<\/a> for your given situation. If your problem is that you want to buy a new video game but don\u2019t have the money, then the \u201cWhere\u201d question probably won\u2019t be very useful to you. You might also need more than one answer for some of the questions. If your problem is that you think someone in your friend group is displaying toxic behavior, the \u201cWho\u201d question might be extra important\u2014not only to determine who is engaging in the behavior, but also who is affected by the behavior.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Framework #2: SCQH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way to identify the problem is by using what the authors call the SCQH (Situation, Complications, Question, and Hypothesis) framework. This method helps you analyze a problem fully to point you in the direction of possible solutions. In this method, you\u2019ll follow four steps:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Situation<\/strong>: Identify your current situation and its context.<\/li><li><strong>Complications<\/strong>: What things are not working about the situation? (These two steps help you identify the gap between your current state and your desired state).<\/li><li><strong>Question<\/strong>: What questions do the situation and complication bring up? This will help you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/clarify-the-problem\/\">clarify the problem<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/narrow-focus\/\">narrow your focus<\/a>.<\/li><li><strong>Hypothesis<\/strong>: Come up with some hypotheses that could address your questions. This leads to the next step of identifying potential solutions.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: The SCQH framework can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.datopian.com\/playbook\/scqh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">particularly<\/a> helpful when working with a group to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-complete-a-project\/\">complete a project<\/a>. When working in groups, there are some additional guidelines to follow to implement SCQH successfully: The Situation portion should be entirely factual, as you\u2019re merely describing the state of things as they are. The Complications portion may be difficult to narrow down and may require some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-brainstorm-effectively\/\">brainstorming<\/a> to identify the exact problem. Questions you can ask to clarify the problem might include, <em>What is the best course of action, How do we begin solving this problem<\/em>, or <em>What is standing in the way of implementing our solution?<\/em> The Hypothesis is then an answer to the questions you\u2019ve identified, and it should be actionable so you know what next step to take.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you&#8217;re stuck, what&#8217;s the first step to getting back in gear?
