One Solution to the Puzzle of the Nine Dots
Although there are other solutions, one solution to the puzzle requires us to "think outside of the box."
When most of us look at the field of nine dots, we imagine a boundary around the edge of the dot array. In doing so, we limit ourselves to trying solutions to the puzzle that only link the dots inside the imaginary border.
Back to the discussion of Assumptions The result is futility. We can only solve the puzzle if we realize that there is no border, we must remove that limiting assumption from our minds, and then we can draw lines past the edge of the field to connect the dots.
