The other day I was trying to scoop icecream out of the icecream bucket with a Chinese spoon but had some trouble as the spoon did not penetrate as I’d like to.

BUT, I did find a big secret in how to scoop icecream with a Chinese spoon.

They key to scooping icecream with a Chinese spoon is to grab an icecream scooper to do the job.

The fact of the matter is, it’s probably not a good idea to scoop icecream with a Chinese spoon, maybe eat with it.

Did I cheat here?  Well, I am sure many of you had this feeling where you are trying to accomplish something with the wrong tools.

Sometimes, the problems you are trying to solve might involve thinking more “radically” instead of simply worrying about how to do something with a Chinese spoon.  The trick here is that you must think “outside” the box, outside the context, and outside the question, “How to scoop Icecream with a Chinese spoon.”

I also didn’t mention that you “could” use other tools but you “should” think you can. (always!)

Many times, the fastest and best solution for getting “stuck” is simply using better tools.  The faster you can “think” this way, the faster you might solve the problem.

And sometimes, starting from scratch can get you farther than being stuck with a problem.  I can attest to doing this many times when I am programming.

Yesterday, I actually lost my car keys.  What did I do?

Well, as a DIYer I am, I decided to make my own coat hanger “contraption” and did succeed in getting the door handle to move, except I couldn’t get the car to open.  To make the long story short, I spent 5 hours today trying different, various coat hanger inventions.  None of them worked so I called the car repair people.

Now, I am writing this post instead of spending another 2-3 hours doing that, although I did highly enjoy trying to break into my own car.  I am still baffled no one called cops on me, darn, I could have made my day more interesting.

So today’s lesson?

Don’t be afraid to try other things, even if that means something completely different or out of context.  That might actually be the solution to your problems. best solution, Blogging, car keys, car repair, coat hanger, contraption, cops, diyer, fact of the matter, Humor, Inspirational, inventions, job, Make Money Online, marketing, own car, scooper, spoon, starting from scratch
