This is something I'm more that starting to realize...but I want to ask others opinions as well.
Is it a general rule of programming that you stop asking yourself if you can do something, and start asking yourself how (your going to) you do something?

Most of the time this is the general rule, yes.
However you also need an initial grasp of whether there is enough information in what you will be given (the input data) to enable anybody to calculate what is wanted (the output data). Sometimes users don't realise this problem, and you have to point it out.

I would call it a general rule about life, not just programming.

I would say it's more of a lifestyle question than a programming question.
If you're the type of person that is optomistic, you can get it done by thinking HOW you are going to do it. There are many ways to skin a cat... etc.

yeah, programming is not about knowing how to do c++ code or java, its about solving problems. once you can do this you will find that you can programm, and not programme c++ or java.
i mean you cna programme anything any lanaguage.
keep you OO good adn keep its simple to read and not confuaing.
the compiler is the best programmer out there(not strictly true but its prety certan that its better than 99% of people).
