Hi there,

I don’t know if you lack problem-solving skills, but for sure you could ask more clear questions ;)

No one can answer if you lack problem-solving skills if you don’t explain the context of your question.

Best,

Francesco

Hi,

In order to best identify this, you need to hire a coach. They will be brutally honest and tell you what you need to work on (and help you improve it).
