Complexity And Simplicity

Describe an idea with crayons. If it’s a good idea, we’ll understand it.


Play a song on a guitar or a piano. If it’s a good song, we’ll be moved by it.


Tell a story using simple, direct language. If it’s a good story, we’ll connect with it. It will seem real to us.


Complexity is the result of incomplete, inadequate, or conflicted thinking. Simplicity is genius.
