What do you do with a problem that immobilized you?
Tackle the first problem you can and the second won't seem so hard.
How many problems get solved by doing nothing?
No so many. Maybe, in your world, none. As often as I've tried the "do nothing and see how it works out" approach, it is often disappointing. It's works better to do something.
And when it's hard to start, I start small. Solve a little problem. Then a bigger one. Build some momentum.
Stay curious, adjust, be flexible. Then solve those problems one at a time.

Implement!
How is your problem solving action plan working? Are you solving your biggest problem?
Centered problem solvers know that ideas are wonderful and yet only as useful as the plans AND actions behind them. We must move forward. We must actively do things to make a difference.
Implementing the solution to a problem is even more important than finding the solution.
Go all the way. Enjoy the benefits. Solve the problem. Work your plan.
