 Here's my approach to tackling any UX problem with ease. Because sharpening up your problem solving mindset is the fastest way to step up in your UX career. And it's not easy. As designers, we've all struggled through this critical phase before. So here we go. Part one, step one, verify it. If you immediately jump into working on how to solve a given problem, ask yourself this, is this even a legit problem? Deep dive into this question and find the root cause. Then identify the real problems before going any further. Step two, clarify the problem. First, identify all the questions you asked. Users, business, product, development, what, how, why? Then figure out what tools, processes, frameworks can help you answer these questions.
