Hi Guys,

I've been having some issues with this thing lately so I wanted to see how more advanced entrepreneurs deal with it.

I can basically identify loads of problems in my daily life(I suppose lots of people can) but I'm having a really hard time coming up with solutions to solve these problems.

Barriers keep coming up and I just don't know how to deal with them.

I think the biggest barrier is psychological and I'm already working on it.

But apart from that, some problems are just too hard for me to find solutions for.

So here are the questions I'm trying to find answers to:
1. How do I think creatively to find solutions to problems? How do I learn this skill?
2. Some solutions require working with other people and organizations such as governments where laws and regulations make for additional barriers. Is it just as simple as sending the relevant people an email and setting up a meeting(to try to convince them / pitch an idea) or is it more complicated than that?
3. What if the solution I came up with requires some sort of expertise I don't have and it takes a lot of money to get the right people doing that task?
4. I have worked on countless long-term projects without pay before and they did not work, how do I motivate myself to rigorously work on long-term projects like these without pay when I am unsure of the outcome and success rate?

I would love to hear your opinion on this, thanks a lot for reading.
