Subliminal problem solving

Long ago he had learned that problems could often be solved by the part of the mind that worked beneath the surface; that, given the element of a problem, it was the nature of the mind to attempt to solve it, or at least to cope with it. The first essential was to see clearly what the problem was, to frame the problem correctly, and the means of solving it would often come without too much working at it.
