The Socratic Method in Psychotherapy
In psychotherapeutic practice, one of the things you learn very rapidly is that you can't really give people advice about what to do. You have to ask them to delineate out the problem and then encourage them to step through all the intermediary steps towards the solution. And I think the reason that works is that unless people walk through all of that, if they're just delivered the prepackage solution, they actually have a new idea how to implement it but no real motivation to implement it.
