There are three elements to every solution:

1. Knowing the problem well enough to know a few solutions and what you think is best
2. Bringing together everyone’s idea of a solution into one strategy
3. Execution

It’s so easy to skip step #2. Why would you need that if you are so smart and already know the solutions?

The problem is in order to really do #3 you have to have alignment. When you get to the end and have the solution, you should look around and see a crowd around you celebrating the accomplishment of their problems with their solution.

You are solving this together.

If you try to solve alone you will quickly realize that you spent a lot of energy going in the wrong direction.
