Why do other people's problems always look so much simpler than our own?

It's rarely the problem that's complicated.

In The Understanding Field Manual (The Pattern) I put it like this: “The difficulty lies not in the problem itself but in the limits of the thinking we bring to it.”

Natasha Swerdolff and I explored this in “Life can be easier than you think”.
