Such as counterintuitive fixes to a problem, or where a mistake unexpectedly results in an even better outcome than originally hoped for.

    Almost anything with managing kids’ behavior.

    If you want them not to do something, tell them a bunch of things to do instead. (It may be appropriate to discuss the undesired behavior later).

    Want them to talk to you? Listen to them.

    Want them to learn a lot and be successful in school? Praise their effort, and not their intelligence or knowledge.
