Does Solving the Problem Make an Impact?

The world is full of problems, but the real question is: Are you someone who solves them? In this episode of Crushing the Day, Drewbie Wilson discusses how identifying and solving problems is at the heart of making an impact. It’s not just about finding solutions—it’s about using those solutions to create lasting change and build a legacy. Ready to make a real difference? Let’s break down how problem-solving can drive your success and help you leave a lasting impact.

Key Takeaways

• Problem-Solvers Make the Biggest Impact: Success comes to those who tackle challenges head-on and find solutions.
• Solutions Create Value: The more problems you solve, the more value you bring to others.
• Action is the Difference Maker: It’s not enough to identify a problem; you have to take action to solve it.
• Making an Impact Requires Consistency: Solving problems consistently is what drives long-term change.

Problem-Solvers Make the Biggest Impact

The people who make the most significant impact in life and business are the ones who solve problems. Whether it’s a small issue or a massive challenge, problem-solvers are the ones who create value, drive innovation, and build legacies. If you want to succeed, you need to start looking at problems as opportunities to make a difference.

Example: Think about successful entrepreneurs like Elon Musk. He saw a problem with how the world relied on fossil fuels and created a solution with electric cars. His willingness to solve a global issue has made an enormous impact on the world and his industry.

Pro Tip: Start by identifying one small problem you can solve today—whether in your business, personal life, or for someone else. Solving small problems consistently leads to massive impact over time.

Solutions Create Value

Every time you solve a problem, you add value to the world. Whether it’s improving someone’s life, streamlining a process, or eliminating a pain point, providing solutions creates value. This value is what ultimately leads to success, both personally and professionally.

Example: A small business owner struggling to attract customers might solve this by improving their marketing strategy. By solving this issue, they bring more customers through the door and increase their revenue, thus adding value to both their business and their clients.

Pro Tip: When solving a problem, think about the long-term value it brings. Will it save time, money, or improve someone’s experience? Focusing on the value of your solutions helps guide your actions.

Action is the Difference Maker

It’s not enough to see the problem—you have to take action to fix it. Problem identification is only half the battle. The real impact comes from the steps you take to find and implement the solution. Those who take decisive action are the ones who stand out, make an impact, and create lasting change.

Example: A manager notices inefficiencies in their team’s workflow. Instead of simply acknowledging the problem, they take action by introducing new tools and processes to streamline tasks, improving productivity and team morale.

Pro Tip: Make it a habit to act quickly once you identify a problem. The sooner you implement a solution, the quicker you can start making an impact.

Making an Impact Requires Consistency

Solving one problem is great, but solving problems consistently is what leads to real, long-term impact. The more solutions you bring to the table, the more value you create and the bigger the legacy you’ll leave behind. Consistency is key—keep solving, keep growing, and keep making a difference.

Example: Consider a fitness trainer who helps clients solve health issues one step at a time. By consistently working with them to achieve their fitness goals, the trainer makes a lasting impact on their clients’ lives, improving their health and well-being long-term.

Pro Tip: Commit to being a problem-solver every day. The more consistent you are in finding and implementing solutions, the more impact you’ll create over time.

What’s Next?

Solving problems isn’t just about quick fixes—it’s about making an impact that lasts.
