Solve It Sideways: Unconventional Thinking for Everyday Problems

You've been pushing on the same problem for months, and the harder you push, the more stuck you get. The answer isn't more effort. It's a change in angle. Solve It Sideways teaches you to break free from straight-ahead thinking and find solutions that others miss.

Most people solve problems the way they appear, using the same tools they used last time. But when the terrain changes, the old tools stop working. This book gives you a repeatable system for reframing questions, challenging assumptions, and generating breakthrough ideas for money, work, and relationships.

Drawing on decades of problem-solving research and real-world application, these techniques have helped founders, managers, and families get unstuck. You'll learn to see the traps you're in and walk around them.

Inside, you'll discover: • How to identify the real problem behind the presented problem • The power of reframing and assumption audits • Working backward from the future you want • Using constraints to boost creativity • Thinking in consequences and second-order effects • Prototyping ideas before committing • Making sideways thinking a daily habit

Stop running into walls. Start walking around them.
