This concept is powerful. I think it shifts our reasoning from following the status quo (this is how it's always been)

I learnt real solution or innovation doesn't come from just adding to an already finished product. It comes from asking basic questions and breaking down problems to their simplest form, then you start building from there

It's really interesting. What I picked out of this is that if you have a problem, you need to learn to break it down to its most basic points, and then figure out a solution for each point. As you solve each part, when you bring them together, you come up with a complete solution, and sometimes that solution could be much better than the already existing solution, all because you thought about it simply.

This is inspiring!.

I love the fact that you were adding examples from real life experiences.

I learnt not to give up too quickly when a problem seems difficult but to think outside the box.

More wisdom and strength.

Hmmmm, I love this man.

Instead of going to a restaurant and buying a plate of jollof rice for 'owo about e'(very expensive).........

Why not buy ata rodo,alubosa,Ororo and others for low amount and cook your jollof rice?.

You'll still have enough money to cook more jollof and still buy soft drinks join.🙃🙃🙃😅

This is real fascinating like you said, Favour.

I think this can be applied across board.

For example, if I'm tasked with writing a long-form article, like 4 - 5k words. Instead of see that as cumbersome, I'll simply break the topic down to it's units.

Topic --> headings --> points under each heading --> discussion per paragraph under each point.

And voilà, I might even end up writing more than the word count needed.

It's really intriguing that complexity is an alternate form of simplicity 😌.

Thanks for sharing 🧡.

Waiting for the part 2 😉.

It is not boring actually.

It is also not long.
