That phrase “figure out” is tempting.
The siren call to let whatever divine action happen to get you to an understanding get us all off the hook.
You and I have used it before to fill the gaps.
“I’ll figure it out.”
This is often said with no plan – again, the divine is supposed to guide us.
You and I shouldn’t be surprised when this doesn’t work out.
I propose one change to that phrase.
“I’ll figure it out” -> “I’ll figure it out by doing X until Y.”
You’ve changed a hazy phrase into something much more falsifiable.
And, you’ve got a plan of action.
