I like your analogy. Just to clarify, does it refer to how you solve leetcode problems? As in, it is better to know how to practically solve some of the problems vs knowing the most efficient way? I just started so apologies if i am understanding incorrectly

1. You want to build (or apply) a framework for problem solving. There are different ones around, we created the "Formation Engineering Method" as one such framework.
2. You want to be extremely comfortable with basic concepts before moving on to harder ones. People jump too fast into LC Mediums to feel like they are making progress. Someone I worked with got a job at Google and did about 150 LC problems focusing on LC Easy the week before, for example.
