Solved How realistic are my goals?

I heard that there is an art form in japan that works by coloring a thread, part by part, so it will result in a complete picture when it is used to weave a belt for a kimino.

I didn't know that... amazing.

I didn't know that... incredible.

Can't find it now - maybe one of our friends from that area can help out. But from me as a german engineer this warranted a respectful tip of the hat.

I very much agree with Espionage724. Many times, when I can't figure something out, I create a page on it, and explaining it the imagined reader helps me figure out what I need to do.

Same with me. Another personal favourite is explaining the problem in detail to one or more other people on a whiteboard, I find that works in a similar way. There is something about verbalising it, drawing diagrams, and also the feedback from other people, even if they know nothing about the problem; the act of explaining it to them brings out the solution.
