1958. Solve Problems Permanently - Ask WHY By Martin Haworth
      As Albert Einstein said:-"The significant problems we face today, cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them."Problems don't go away unless you get to the cause - the source of them.

      When you begin to write your business plan or a section within it, you probably ask yourself, "What should I talk about?
