The people that really solve the problem, they know exactly how they solved it, they know the little details. the people that pretended to solve the problem can maybe go one level then get stuck.

The best way to solve any problem is to remove the cause.

There are horrible people who, instead of solving a problem, tangle it up and make it harder to solve for anyone who wants to deal with it. Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.

If you define the problem correctly, you almost have the solution.

When you first start off trying to solve a problem, the first solutions you come up with are very complex, and most people stop there. But if you keep going, and live with the problem and peel more layers of the onion off, you can often times arrive at some very elegant and simple solutions.

If a problem cannot be solved, enlarge it.
