I Want the Antidote too!The Problem With Problems
You feel it the moment it happens. A problem pops up—The budget review comes back short, a project that was ‘on track’ suddenly isn’t, or you catch wind of team frustration that no one’s saying out loud—and your chest tightens. Do something. Fix it now.
So you grab a quick solution: a patchwork email, a throwaway meeting, or a late-night sprint that shouldn’t have been necessary. The problem looks fixed on the outside, but underneath? It’s still there, waiting to unravel.
We’ve all felt it. Solving things quickly feels productive. Move fast, and the discomfort fades.
But what I’ve experienced is that most quick fixes are like patching a pothole with gravel. The road looks smooth for now, but the cracks are still there, ready to widen.
The more I sit with this idea, the clearer it becomes. The rush to fix something ‘right now’ rarely solves the root of the problem.
More often it means we’re avoiding the discomfort of not knowing. That space -- where the next move isn’t obvious -- feels unbearable. So we grab the first answer that brings relief and let ourselves move on.
See how Amanda, IT Development Manager, rewrote her leadership story and made progress she once thought impossible:
"I don’t know if words can express how long I have been struggling with crossing the gap between the leader I was and the leader I wanted to be. I had read many books, taken many courses, and was not able to make a permanent lasting change.
Working with Stacy has allowed me to make a dramatic, lasting, and sustainable change for the better. If you feel you have tried other solutions but just can’t seem to make progress, at least try the introductory session with Stacy. This coaching has truly been life changing!"
What I’ve discovered is that the answer to most problems lives halfway between urgency and patience.
And so many times our impatience keeps us from finding it.
What I keep seeing, in my own work and with clients, is that quick answers rarely hold. They quiet the noise for a moment, but the real problem stays untouched.
What I’ve discovered is this: rushing to resolve discomfort often leads to shallow solutions that create deeper problems.
When we move too quickly, we stop paying attention. The surface might look smooth, but the real issue stays buried, waiting to show up again—bigger and harder to ignore.
We’re trying to outrun that sinking feeling in our gut—the one that whispers, What if I don’t have the answer? What if this gets worse? What did I do to cause this? So we grab the nearest solution, slap it in place, and call it done.
The moment we fix something too quickly, we give ourselves permission to stop thinking about it. We walk away, patting ourselves on the back, while the real issue sits there like a splinter under the skin. It doesn’t go away. It festers.
Rushing quiets the noise, but patience is where real solutions take hold. The answers that truly last need time to show up.
In other words, impatience forces us into answers we can live with, while patience reveals the answers that stand the test of time.
The Cost of Rushing Decisions
Leaders frequently face overwhelming pressure to act quickly. While it might feel productive in the moment, the tendency to prioritize speed frequently results in decisions that don’t stand the test of time.
Research from McKinsey reveals that executives spend nearly 40% of their working hours making decisions, yet more than half of that time is spent ineffectively​. This inefficiency often leads to decisions being revisited or entirely redone later. (McKinsey: “Make Faster, Better Decisions”)
The brain’s need for certainty exacerbates this issue.
According to behavioral studies, humans are wired to seek immediate relief from discomfort, even if it means choosing suboptimal solutions.
For leaders, this manifests as a rush to solve problems—grabbing at answers that seem good enough to move forward.
How Leaders Can Shift Toward Thoughtful Solutions
The prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain responsible for complex decision-making—functions best when we reduce stress and allow time for reflective thinking​. Rushing floods the brain with stress hormones, impairing judgment and increasing the likelihood of mistakes. So let's look at 5 ways to make this work for us...
- Adopt Intentional Pauses: Build structured moments into your decision-making process. Before finalizing a plan, ask: Have we considered all the root causes? Are we solving the right problem
- Normalize Discomfort: Acknowledge that uncertainty is part of the leadership process. Embracing discomfort creates room for deeper insights.
- Leverage Diverse Input: Engaging diverse perspectives early in problem-solving leads to more comprehensive solutions. Research shows that organizations with inclusive decision-making practices outperform their peers by 60%​. (https://www.cloverpop.com/blog/research-shows-diversity-inclusion-better-decision-making-at-work)
- Reflect on Outcomes: Revisit decisions periodically—not to second-guess but to learn. What worked, and what didn’t? This feedback loop improves future decisions.
- Train for Emotional Regulation: Strengthening emotional intelligence reduces the reactive behaviors that lead to rushed decisions.
