We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
Say your son gets in a fight with a classmate. He may have lashed out in anger and can’t take it back. How to address this? Explain to him that if he continues feeling angry about what his classmate did to him, he cannot overcome the issue. Ask him to think of the good qualities of his peer, and see how that changes the way he faces the situation.
