Inversion

Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi, the 19th-century German mathematician, famously advised his students "man muss immer umkehren" (one must always invert), teaching them to approach difficult problems by reversing their perspective—working backwards from the desired solution or considering what conditions would make the problem false—a principle that extends beyond mathematics to problem-solving in business and life.
