I like to work through a process like this: what do I have to work with; whats important right now; what’s the next best step to go forward; do it. Again and again.

None of your immediate next steps will solve the problem; but maybe it will be step 6 or 8 or 20 that does. But if you are only ever repeating steps 1-3 you are going to run out of time. Change direction if it seems like you won’t be able to capitalize on the current strategy, not if another strategy might work better.
