"Vicarious learning from the experiences of others saves making errors yourself, but I regard the report of successes as being basically more important than the study of failures. There are and then many ways of being wrong and and so few of being correct, studying successes is more efficient."

"A 2nd reason the systems engineer's blueprint is never completed is the solution offered to the original problem normally produces both deeper insight and dissatisfactions in the engineers themselves. Furthermore, while the design phase continually goes from proposed solution to evaluation and dorsum again and once more, there comes a time when this process of redefinement must cease and the real problem exist coped with—thus giving what they realize is, in the long run, a suboptimal solution."

"While the problem of ai tin can be viewed as, "Which of all the things humans do tin machines as well do?," I would adopt to ask the question in another grade: "Of all of life's burdens, which are those machines can relieve, or significantly ease, for u.s.a.?"

"If you cannot drop a wrong problem, then the first time you come across one you volition exist stuck with it for the rest of your career. Einstein was tremendously artistic in his early years, but once he began, in midlife, the search for a unified theory, he spent the residuum of his life on it and had about zippo to testify for all the endeavor. I have seen this many times while watching how scientific discipline is done. It is most likely to happen to the very creative people; their previous successes convince them they can solve any problem, but at that place are other reasons too overconfidence why, in many fields, sterility sets in with advancing age. Managing a artistic career is not an easy task, or else it would often be washed. In mathematics, theoretical physics, and astrophysics, age seems to be a handicap (all characterized by high, raw creativity), while in music composition, literature, and statesmanship, age and feel seem to be an nugget. As valued by Bell Telephone Laboratories in the tardily 1970s, the first 15 years of my career included all they listed, and for my 2d 15 years they listed nothing I was very closely associated with! Yes, in my areas the actually great things are generally done while the person is immature, much every bit in athletics, and in old age you can plough to coaching (teaching), as I have done. Of course, I do not know your field of expertise to say what effect age will have, but I suspect really great things will be realized fairly immature, though information technology may take years to get them into practice. My advice is if you lot want to exercise pregnant things, now is the time to get-go thinking (if you have not already washed and so) and non wait until information technology is the proper moment—which may never arrive!"

"In closing I want to remind you yet again of Pasteur's remark, "Luck favors the prepared mind." Yes, it is a matter of luck just what you do; it is much less luck you will practice something if you lot prepare yourself to succeed. "Creativity" is simply another name for the smashing successes which make a difference in history."

"The reason this happens so oft is the creators have to fight through and then many dark difficulties, and wade through so much misunderstanding and defoliation, they cannot see the low-cal equally others can, now the door is open and the path made easy. Please remember, the inventor often has a very limited view of what he invented, and some others (you?) can see much more."

"This is a book about thinking. One cannot talk about thinking in the abstruse, at least not usefully. But ane can talk about thinking near digital filters, and by studying how not bad scientists thought nigh digital filters, 1 learns, however gradually, to remember like a great scientist."

"A long gestation period of intense thinking most the problem may issue in a solution, or else the temporary abandonment of the trouble. This temporary abandonment is a common feature of many bully creative acts. The monomaniacal pursuit often does not piece of work; the temporary dropping of the idea sometimes seems to exist essential to allow the subconscious find a new approach. Then comes the moment of "insight," creativity, or whatsoever you desire to call it—you see the solution. Of course, it oft happens that you are wrong; a closer exam of the problem shows the solution is faulty, but might be saved by some suitable revision. But maybe the problem needs to be contradistinct to fit the solution! That has happened! More normally it is back to the drawing lath, every bit they say, more than mulling things over. The simulated starts and false solutions frequently sharpen the next approach you try. You now know how not to do it! You have a smaller number of approaches left to explore. Y'all have a better idea of what will not work and perhaps why it will non work."

"the current situation being a toss-upwardly as to what yous want to believe. Man is non a rational animal, he is a rationalizing animal. Hence you will discover that oftentimes what you believe is what you lot want to believe, rather than being the issue of careful thinking."

"an exam of history and of reports of those who have done great work, all seem to bear witness that typically the pattern of inventiveness is as follows. There is first the recognition of the problem in some dim sense. This is followed by a longer or shorter period of refinement of the problem. Do not be also hasty at this stage, as you are likely to put the problem in the conventional form and discover only the conventional solution. This stage, moreover, requires your emotional involvement, your delivery to finding a solution, since without a deep emotional involvement you are not likely to notice a really fundamental, novel solution."

"Information technology is well known the drunken sailor who staggers to the left or correct with north independent random steps volition, on the boilerplate, end up about steps from the origin. But if there is a pretty girl in one direction, then his steps will tend to go in that direction and he volition go a distance proportional to due north. In a lifetime of many, many contained choices, pocket-sized and large, a career with a vision will go yous a altitude proportional to north, while no vision volition become you only the distance . In a sense, the main difference between those who arrive and those who do not is some people accept a vision and the others do not and therefore can only react to the current events every bit they happen."

"my dominate was saying intellectual investment is like compound involvement: the more you do, the more you lot learn how to do, so the more than you can do, etc. I practice non know what compound involvement rate to assign, but it must exist well over vi%—one extra hour per mean solar day over a lifetime will much more than double the total output. The steady application of a bit more effort has a great total accumulation."

"Westerman believes, as I do, that while the client has some knowledge of his symptoms, he may not understand the real causes of them, and information technology is foolish to endeavor to cure the symptoms merely. Thus while the systems engineers must listen to the client, they should as well endeavor to excerpt from the client a deeper understanding of the phenomena. Therefore, part of the job of a systems engineer is to define, in a deeper sense, what the problem is and to pass from the symptoms to the causes. Only equally there is no definite arrangement within which the solution is to be found, and the boundaries of the problem are elastic and tend to aggrandize with each round of solution, so likewise in that location is often no final solution, yet each bike of input and solution is worth the effort. A solution which does non prepare for the next round with some increased insight is hardly a solution at all. I suppose the eye of systems engineering is the acceptance that at that place is neither a definite fixed problem nor a final solution, rather evolution is the natural state of diplomacy. This is, of grade, non what yous learn in school, where you are given definite problems which have definite solutions."

"computers have given summit direction the power to micromanage their system, and top management has shown little or no power to resist using this power. Y'all tin regularly read in the papers some big corporation is decentralizing, but when you follow it for several years y'all meet they merely intended to do so, but did not."

"The Turing test is a pop approach, but information technology flies in the face of the standard scientific method, which starts with the easier problems before facing the harder ones. Thus I shortly raised the question with myself, "What is the smallest or close to the smallest programme I would believe could think?" Clearly, if the program were divided into two parts, so neither piece could think. I tried thinking about it each nighttime equally I put my caput on the pillow to sleep, and after a year of because the problem and getting nowhere I decided it was the wrong question! Perhaps "thinking" is not a yes/no affair, merely possibly it is a thing of degree."

"Y'all must learn to walk earlier you run in this matter of being creative, but I believe it can be done. Furthermore, if you are to succeed (to the extent you secretly wish to), you must go creative in the face up of the rapidly changing applied science which will dominate your career. Society will not stand still for you lot; it will evolve more and more rapidly every bit technology plays an increasing role at all levels of the organization. My job is to make you i of the leaders in this changing world, not a follower, and I am trying my best to alter y'all, especially in getting you to have accuse of yourself and not to depend on others, such as me, to help."

"To run into the obvious it frequently takes an outsider, or else someone like me who is thoughtful and wonders what he is doing and why information technology is all necessary. Fifty-fifty when told, the quondam timers volition persist in the ways they learned, probably out of pride for their past and an unwillingness to admit there are better ways than those they were using for so long."

"Near everyone who opens up a new field does not really understand it the way the followers do." The bear witness for this is, unfortunately, all also good. It has been said in physics no creator of whatsoever pregnant affair ever understood what he had done."
