The biggest part of problem solving is taking knowledge that you already have and figuring out how to use it in other ways. As you learn more you'll get better and better at it.

You should read the book: Mindset by Carol Dweck, You can learn anything with the growth mindset.

Answer 15

In my humble opinion, not everyone can do that, some people's brain are just not suitable for it.

It's kinda similar of asking "Can anyone write a good poem?"

The answer is obviously not, not everyone can do problem solving. You need some talent.

BUT, the huge but here is that you don't need a lot. It's more of a hard work than pure talent, although you need some talent eventually.

As Thomas Edison said.
"Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration"

Answer 16

Answer 18

Both. Being affected by both nature and nurture, problem solving actually comes by itself, though slowly, as the brain develops. To quicken this growth, as it is way too small to really notice, you should try some mind puzzlers or brain teasers. Be sure it includes a logical conclusion, since logic and problem solving are tied together. I would say 93% of the time it is logic...

The rest? Usage of knowledge. If you use what you know to extreme capabilities(without use of logic) then long word questions will pass by easily.

There is obviously much more, but time is crucial, especially because it is powering the universe...

No time, no universe...

Quicker time, quicker universe...

Answer 20

Problem solving is a great quality, but it's depends on how much you want to solve and how much you tried. Nobody born with natural talent, you have to work hard to be a natural problem solver.
