Essential Ingredients of Problem Solving

I came across a list of essential ingredients of perception attributed to Rudolph Amheim. The list is

• active exploration
• correction
• grouping
• simplification
• abstractions
• analysis & synthesis
• completion
• selection
• comparison
• combining
• separating
• putting into context.

These are all things that are elements of problem solving. Cultivating these skills will enhance your ability to solve problems.
