Finally, this has to do with to be able to work scientifically. And this must be learned, for many painful years. Not everyone is a genius like Michael Faraday...

A scientist has learned to make ultra small steps,


Yes, but we are engineers. People with targets, specifications and DEADLINES. Maybe students have time to mess about with incremental efforts, but in reality we HAVE to make big jumps. Of course a jump might be too big, and we jump back a little, but progression is not by tiny quantised steps.

Of course, the trick is to learn how to make the big jumps....and there are no shortcuts to learning that.
