What are the most effective techniques to reframe problems positively?

Here is a simple few step process that enables us to re-evaluate our experiences to break down unhelpful thinking habits and replace them with new ones. Start with the problem and work backwards. 1. What is the problem - what happened? 2. What is the trend - what keeps on happening , what patterns keep showing up ? 3. What role are you playing in this situation ? 4. What roles are other people playing in the situation ? 5. What are the factors outside of your control ? 6. what factors are under your control ? 7. What are your possible options / opportunities in this current situation ?

Es gilt nicht nur herauszufinden, was das Problem genau ist, dieses soll auch ernst und aufgenommen werden. Durch aktives Zuh?ren und Fragen stellen, findet man auch das "Problem hinter dem Problem". Durch Aufzeigen und aktivieren von vorhandenen Ressourcen, das "Problem" neu bewerten und positiv formulieren.

A powerful reframe not only identifies the “problem” but also acknowledges its usefulness. Behind every negative belief there is a positive intention somewhere. Acknowledging how we really feel or think and sitting with it long enough for the negative feeling to decrease allows that part of us to feel heard and allows it to stand down. We can now open the door for the alternative to come in. Many times we try to move on, skip or ignore the negative. When that happens we struggle moving forward.

During my MBA days I was told that Problem is Nothing,but absence of ideas. And voila,it has stuck with me since last two decades. And integrating it further with my coaching experience, my 2 cents are: when you have no solution ie there is absence of idea - then instead of thinking in victim or blame frame, express your problem in terms of "what action can be taken or every options does one have to resolve the issue". That will put brain to solution orientation. Example- your raw material is lying ideal and its time for your reorder, what do you do since you still have stock? This problem can reframed as- I have unused stock in SBU1, let me figure out which all customers can I push my material to so that SBU1 can reorder and chain goes .

Nice perspectives and co-creation! I find that clients often not just state their problem, but also attach a negative belief towards it. This is a great opportunity to investigate not only the factual problem, but challenge their beliefs about it. In doing so they themselves expand their thinking about it and experience that it is not really the situation in itself they suffer from, but the negative thoughts they hold about it!

Do a 'Future Flash': Envision a positive outcome and visualize yourself successfully navigating the situation. See the outcome you want as already true. Then, act immediately on impressions that come to you.

When challenging your negative assumptions - the first step is to identify your unhelpful pattern of thought. The ask yourself a few of the following self refection questions: 1. What evidence is there for this thought/ against it? 2. Am I basing this thought on facts or on feelings? 3. Could I be making an incorrect assumption here? if so why ? 4. How might someone else interpret my situation differently? 5. Am I viewing all the evidence of just what supports my beliefs? 6. Am I just thinking this way out of habit ?

Shift your perspective. What if this problem is actually an opportunity to radically improve the approach to production or change the direction entirely? Taking this approach has led to some of our best discoveries.

When we ask ourselves questions that may lead to catastrophic thoughts, we can further challenge that question by asking “what is the evidence to support the negative outcome?” This usually leaves a struggle to find any or a few at most. As the unconscious mind likes to be creative, it will go off and try and find a resolution to the problem for you. Don’t dwell on a problem you can’t initially find an answer for. Seek help and guidance from people with experience, all the while in the background your brain is going about giving you some ideas to help you tackle the problem.

Techniques are great tools to help raise awareness but I like to keep it simple. Just ask them write down what the negative assumptions are. Seeing it on paper in front of them is powerful. They are able to see whether there is an logic and truth behind the negative assumption or whether it’s a lie/illogical.

Some of my go-to questions for helping clients explore alternative perspectives (as appropriate to the situation and topic in-session): - What else could be true here? - How do you want to feel about this situation? - What's the silver lining for you here? - How could this be just the thing you need right now?

Exploring alternative perspectives is about allowing the client to shift position in whichever way is suitable for them. Perhaps they need to step into the shoes of their future self and look back to advise the current self. Or to look at it from their partner or loved ones perspective. A good coach will get to know the client well and be able to help them find the right shift in perspective. Getting a client excited about what a good solution would do for them can help encourage them to find a positive perspective.

To reframe a situation and make it more positive, you can try a simple perspective shift. Try something like, "What will I learn from handling this situation?" You might discover a new skill, or even a new opportunity that you would never have noticed without shifting your perspective.

Once we identify the negative emotions arising from the problem, and after we identify the gift and opportunity by reframing the problem, we work to transform the negative emotions through empathy of self and others (if any). This significantly shifts the person from the negative perspective they walked in with, to a loving, positive and compassionate perspective. This then allows for blameless exploration into the root cause of the issue, which then leads to freely finding positive ways to tackle the problem.

Für einen Perspektivenwechsel reichen oft die "richtigen Fragen". F?llt es dem Kunden schwer, arbeite ich gerne mit Bodenanker und lasse den Kunden auf die verschiedenen Positionen stehen und so auf sich und sein Anliegen schauen und auch aus der Perspektive von z. B. Vorgesetzten / Freunde / etc. auf

Un ??je perds - je gagne?? et du coup ??qu’est-ce que je décide?? peut permettre d’envisager et de choisir la meilleure perspective pour la personne accompagnée

Quelques questions pour choisir la meilleure perspective: 1. Faites-vous cela pour vous-même ou est-ce ce que les autres attendent de vous ? Cela rend-il quelqu'un plus heureux ? Qui ? 2. Votre décision est-elle l'absence de décision ? 3. Est-ce que cela vous aidera à grandir en tant que personne ? mettre en valeur vos meilleures qualités ? 4. Est-ce quelque chose dont vous voulez comme souvenir ? Cela en vaut-il la peine ? 5. Cette décision est-elle cohérente avec vos valeurs ? 7. Seriez-vous en mesure de tester d'abord cette décision ? changer ou d'annuler cette décision ?

One of my favorite coaching questions is, "What would be more helpful to think about?" This narrows the focus to searching for solutions rather than complaining, feeling like a victim, or other common reactions that are not very productive.

I love to teach my clients the following skills: 1. Looking for the optimal angle. We ask: why is this perfect? What is the opportunity (to learn, to grow...) here? What am I able to see now that I couldn't before? 2. Looking for evidence why it is still working. Often we ask ourselves: Why me? Why isn't it working? What's wrong with me? And our good brain goes to work and presents us with answers on these questions (based on evidence of the past). Why don't ask better questions and send your brain to work? Instead ask your brain to show you what is working? What is the optimal angle here? It's a wonderful exercise in loving the details, celebrating small successes and practicing gratitude. Have fun with these little diddies!

I recently applied this with a client who believed that she could not communicate with people due to less knowledge. I asked her to describe the person who could communicate well. Through the answer, she identified certain traits that she would like to develop, and that helped in creating a reaffirming statement. We then wrote it down on a piece of paper and began working on changing it.

L’objectif SMART, oui, en s’assurant qu’il est écologique (bon) pour la personne! La stratégie des petits pas est complémentaire.

Faire un plan d'action factuel daté et précis en mettant en place des petites actions respectant l'écologie du coaché qui lui permettront de changer ses habitudes qu'il considère mauvaises pour lui , petit à petit !

Il existe deux possibilités - soit résoudre le problème, soit changer sa vision de ce problème. Il y a beaucoup de puissantes techniques psychologiques pour changer sa vision. Mais cela s'avère souvent être un évitement de la résolution des vrais problèmes. Vous connaissez cette blague ? "- J'ai consulté un psychanalyste pendant deux ans à propos de mon incontinence nocturne. - Eh bien, c'est guéri ? - Non, mais maintenant j'en suis fier !" Il y a de fortes chances que vous n'ayez pas besoin des techniques les plus efficaces pour recadrer votre problème de manière positive, mais simplement du courage pour réfléchir, faire un plan d'action et le résoudre!

Help the client tap into their past experiences when tackling a current problem. ?? Most people underestimate their resourcefulness and past achievements. As a coach, we can guide them to uncover past wins, applying that valuable experience to conquer present challenges.

Trop souvent, on passe rapidement d'une tache à l'autre sans prendre le temps de reconna?tre et de célébrer ses réussites. Examinez vos progrès et vos réalisations. Aimez-vous et gatez-vous. Utilisez de petites récompenses lorsque les résultats vous font plaisir. Parfois, un mot suffit : "Bravo ! Beau résultat !" Ou ajoutez une récompense : "Bravo ! Tu peux partir en vacances !" Ou encore : "Quelle meilleure fa?on de célébrer une décision réussie... que de résoudre un nouveau problème !" :)

This step is SO important, yet is often skipped or overlooked. When you manage through a rough spot, and things go well, celebrate! Think about what you learned, give yourself credit, and feel grateful that it is all behind you. Don't skip this step because it's essential for building confidence and trusting yourself.

Saber identificar situa??es similares que você vivenciou no passado e como saiu delas é uma excelente alternativa. Quando um problema acontece, temos a tendência de achar que n?o daremos conta ou que é um problema gigantesco. Relembrar situa??es do passado pode nos trazer calma e seguran?a para enfrentar essa nova situa??o.

The most crucial step! I'll never forget the moment my coach simply reflected my accomplishments back to me. ?? I work with high sensitive entrepreneurs, among others, and we meet once a month. We celebrate all their little and big wins- priceless!

Every problem is a learning opportunity. Most businesses exist because there are problems. Become a professional problem solver and get solution focused.

In my experience, showing a problem as an opportunity is the best way to change our outlook towards it. Here're 3 ways I do it with my clients: 1/ Challenge the inner narrator Our inner critic loves to spin negative stories. Ditch the judgment, report the facts. "Deadline shifted" vs. "Everything's falling apart." Enforcing a neutral view is easier to accept to the mind. 2/ Look for the positive Train yourself to actively search for positive aspects within the problem. Maybe a missed flight gave you time to catch up on emails or reflect on an important issue. 3/ Reframe for growth View problems as opportunities for learning & growth. Ask: "What can I learn here?" This growth mindset turns stumbles into stepping stones.

- Check for underlying beliefs that need to be updated/deleted/ replaced. - Check for blind spots - Check for hidden potential accelerators

Das Problem anerkennen. Die Akzeptanz dass etwas ist, wie es ist,?ffnet eine realistische Sicht auf die aktuelle Situation. Desidentifikation der zweite : nicht ich bin das Problem sondern ich habe ein Problem. Diese Sicht erm?glicht es, in eine Beobachterposition zu gelangen. Ich arbeite gerne mit der tieferliegenden Frage als Ausganglage. Klienten erforschen durch diese Fragen ihre Beobachtungen, was geschieht in dieser Situation, ihre Vermutungen, warum es ist, wie es ist und benennen die Gefühle. Durch die tiefer gewonnene Einsicht, ver?ndert sich oft die Frage. Es werden die 3 zentralen Erkenntnisse aus der Forschung benannt, das sich zeigende Ziel oder den Fokus, um dann den 1. Konkreten Schritt zu definieren.
