November 19 KICK Everyone first, then KISS them!Keep It Complex, Knucklehead!
No no no. Keep It Simple Stupid. That's the axiom right?
Simple is half the story.
People who preach simplicity in ALL things I think are misguided. Complexity is a fact of life. And complexity must be grappled with. And unfortunately, the solution to many a complex problem is even more complex. I just wanted to remind everyone reading my blog that fact (not many of you I guess).
However, the thing of REAL beauty is pure simplicity. (By now you're going "HUH?!). And that's the crux of the matter. The most successful thing will be the thing of utmost complexity that has the simplest output.
And ALL outputs should be simple - from your Powerpoint slides to your latest product to the Grand Unified Theory to the meaning of life.
Why are humans successful? Because of the brain. How easy is it to use your brain? Lift a finger now. Simple? Can you imagine what kind of complexities are going through your neurons, nerves, muscles, bones when you lift a finger?
So next time you meet someone who wants to KISS everything, KICK them first. Then KISS them. You'd probably win the fight.
"Everthing should be as simple as possible, but not simpler"
Albert Einstein
