• The Purpose:  Briefly outlines the purpose of this specific stage of the problem solving process.
• Envision Future Scenarios:  Explores how to write out effective scenarios that will help bring your creative ideas to life in the real world — dealing with real world circumstances. This branch also breaks down the benefits of writing scenarios and how they can help you make better decisions.
• Outline Scenarios and Universal View:  Presents you with a number of thought-provoking questions that will help you to outline each of your scenarios with clarity and purpose. In addition to scenario planning, this branch also outlines the questions you must ask yourself to help clarify your Universal View. Your Universal View must be aligned with your scenario planning strategy, or otherwise there may be conflicts as additional problems arise that may sabotage your progress.
• Evaluate Scenarios:  Having outlined your scenarios and clarified your Universal View, now comes time to evaluate each of these scenarios and then select the best path moving forward. The more thorough you are at this stage, the less mistakes you will make when it comes time to put your creative ideas into action.
• Engineer Plan of Action:  The final step of this stage of the problem solving process is to engineer a plan of action that will help bring your creative idea into real world application. This branch outlines the areas that you should be focusing on while developing your plan of action.

Stick with these principles, memorize and incorporate them into your life, and you will progressively develop the necessary habits-of-mind that will help you to lay down a solid plan of action to help bring your creative ideas to fruition.
