Revisit of Einstein's Thought - Make it Simple



As a research student, I did write a manuscript which was reviewed by my gurus, they made me understand the mismatch of thought process in writing. They insisted one principle "Make it Simple" and straight forward for the readers to understand. 

I did a self-analysis which made me think of the beautiful quote of Einstein and was able to correlate it to my scenario. It may sound as a simple suggestion but there is a strong essence in it, which made me correlate to Einstein quote to my scenario.
"If you can't explain simply , you don't understand well enough"

.

The difficulty which I was going through without my knowledge was clarity of thoughts which reflected while writing the paper.  The concept or methodology section had many of the phrases to be repetitive. Why should this happen? The answer is, make it simple so that no detailed explanation is required with long sentences and confusing the readers.

It just pondered to my mind that Einstein might have faced a similar kind of phase at any point in time, probably that might have made him quote those phrases. We might not know exactly at what instance he would have quoted, but self-analysis made me provoke my thoughts. 

I am a learner, might have missed understanding few phrases, but that should not be an excuse or a compromise in research. Rather, the ideal way is to understand and reciprocate the ideas.  A manuscript should contain information which I should clearly know and able to explain in a simple manner. 

Think act and react. In the same way, organize the flow of paper in mind, understand the concept and then write a manuscript to any scientific journal. This would enhance us for a successful research paper and reach the readers easily. Lastly, learning and sharing of knowledge intersect at this point in time.
