Whenever we try to make changes in our lifestyle, sometimes we doubt ourselves that maybe we can't do it or it isn't suitable for us. Why does it happen? It isn't because of fear but because we don't believe in ourselves. We aren't confident enough to keep pushing through to do the things we should.

Gould's wife published one of his puzzles in the local newspaper. It spread to Britain and was published in the Times, where it took off.
