This book is the revised and updated 2025 edition of The LOST ART of PROBLEM-SOLVING, The Science of Overcoming Obstacles.

Problem-Solving is your ability to consistently produce excellent results by anticipating problems, determining their cause, and selecting the best solution from competing alternatives

It's the 6th volume in a forty-book series of a comprehensive Success Training Program (see OTHER BOOKS).

In business, Problem-Solving is your ability to anticipate problems or to resolve them as soon as they're identified.

Note: Decision-making (Chapters 7-10, and Appendix E) is the fifth of the eight steps in the Problem-Solving Process (or PSP).

The beauty of the Problem-Solving Process (or PSP) is that it removes the emotions normally associated with bad problem-solving, which means deciding on an impulse or emotion and justifying it later with logic.

It's designed to be used when there are three or more valid options from which to choose.
