Be the guy who says "this is going to be hard, but I'm sure it's possible". Don't be the guy who says "I'm sure I can find a way to circumvent the laws of physics".

Why be either guy? If you know that something really isn't possible, just say so. Hang onto your self-respect and reputation.




I guess I phrased that poorly. I mean that you should work on problems which are hard but possible, not that you should be dishonest.
