It seems that we spend a lot of time looking for the best solutions to our problems. I wonder if we would be better off looking for the best questions. Starting with questions makes more sense to me. Questions that start with "why" or "if" can lead to some interesting insights. The next time you are faced with a problem, start with a question and end with a solution.
Those who start with a solution often end with a question. "Why did we think this was a good solution?" Answer: Because we didn't ask the right questions.
