The Answer



If you approach the problem from this direction, you will see only a high stone wall and not a gate. If you circle it, you'll get a sense of its size. If you are able to imagine what it looks like from a very high point, all of its secrets may be revealed.

But even after you think you know it, talking about the problem can provide clarity. Talking about what you think may uncover precisely how you can reason your way to a conclusion.

There are few experiences more exhilarating than solving what seemed to be unsolvable.

After reading your blog for about 6 or 7 years now, I'm starting to understand what you mean by these kinds of parables.
Thank you, Michael. You've had a big impact on my career and indeed my life.
