What’s in a day?

What would be a good algorithm?

Let’s start:

1. 1.       Is the issue recurring?
2. 2.       What is the issue?
3. 3.       What is the reason for the issue?
4. 4.       End result: walk away or try harder.
5. 5.       Is the conflict internal or external?
6. 6.       What elements are within/out of your control?
7. 7.       What prevents you from walking away?
8. 8.       What prevents you from trying harder?
9. 9.       What changes will need to take place for the issues to be resolved?
10. 10.   Are the parties concerned willing to make those changes?
11. 11.   Is there an underlying issue that needs to be resolved first?
12. 12.   What is a reasonable timeline to see results?
