Feels like a lot of problems are made harder than they need to be.

Simple solutions exist, but people:

overthink
overanalyse
delay action

Do you think this is true, or is complexity unavoidable?

Thats not fair. Some people don't have the capacity to critically think. the Dunning-Kruger effect


error.404

The phenomenon where people with limited knowledge or competence in a particular area greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence is called the Dunning-Kruger effect. It is a cognitive bias stemming from a lack of metacognition-the ability to recognize one's own ignorance or incompetence

Bit fiddly but that is the right approach. Let us know how it turns out.

Is that always true or just in some cases? I have been down a rabbit hole on this and still feel like I am missing the full picture.

I will dig into that further.
