We will never know how well something will work unless we try it out. We test drive cars before we buy, we tour homes before we buy, we test the water with our little toe before we jump in, so we need to test our probable solution too.

A couple of steps need to be taken to properly apply a solution to a problem. First we need to decide just how we are going to execute the probable solution, by taking time to think this step through, we may find a chink it the armour, and this would best be found before jumping in wholeheartedly.

One more step to consider is when do we apply the solution, timing is everything they say and by thinking through our application of a solution we will discover a best time for application.

The final step, you guessed it… put your solution to work and study how it goes, if all has been properly thought out a solution may be closer than you think.
