People who face a difficult question often answer an easier one instead, without realizing it.

I would be wary of experts' intuition, except when they deal with something that they have dealt with a lot in the past.

Endlessly amused by people's minds.

If people can construct a simple and coherent story, they will feel confident regardless of how well grounded it is in reality.

Establish a closing ritual. Know when to stop working. Try to end each work day the same way, too. Straighten up your desk. Back up your computer. Make a list of what you need to do tomorrow.

It is the consistency of the information that matters for a good story, not its completeness. Indeed, you will often find that knowing little makes it easier to fit everything you know into a coherent pattern.

I enjoy being active, but I look forward to the day when I can retire to the Internet.
