Alexander used his sword to cut the knot in the rope, what do you think was the traditional way of thinking that he gave up?

Traditional thinking should be to find the end of the rope, to untie the knot, but people tend to get stuck in the circle of thinking, in fact, the story of Alexander is to show that his thinking is not confined, jump out of the circle, just use a very simple, everyone did to untie the rope. This way of thinking can be applied to many problems

The traditional way of thinking is to open the knot by hand, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Alexander had only his goal in mind, so he discarded the complexity in favor of simplicity and speed, and ultimately got what he wanted.
