"It just takes this to do that": Oh, really?

“Ooh, to do that, it just takes …”

Have you noticed? Those words that slipped in? Yes, the “just takes”.

This term is your worst enemy.

By using it, we hide great complexity in a black box.

And when it’s finally time to open this box, we quickly realize our mistake of not making it more transparent before.

As a general rule, I always try to be attentive during conversations to these words, and I try to use them as little as possible!
