Looking inwards and thinking about what the root cause of the issue is. Often I found that the root cause was different to what I initially believed.

It also often helped to not only do a root cause analysis, but to reflect back on past instances with similar problems and doing a post mortem analysis for them.

Root cause analyses and post mortems are pretty common in the tech world, where I work and where they helped me solve many issues. But they're also useful when you can detach yourself emotionally from a personal issue and ask yourself what is really preventing you from succeeding.
