Viewing problems in a holistic way is one of the most effective ways to scale your efforts.

Holistic is defined as: characterized by comprehension of the parts of something as intimately interconnected and explicable only by reference to the whole.

Let’s water that definition down to something more digestible.

It means that although you may have 20 problems if you thought deeply enough about those problems the odds are that they are connected in many ways and you could likely find 5 big problems that cause the other.

There are always more problems than you can solve – I guarantee it. So viewing your problems in a holistic view is going to be key to making the most efficient use of your time.

If you can view things holistically you can become the better – smarter version of yourself.
