The author says to "work on boring problems" but I think what it really boils down to is knowing why you are solving a problem. Just picking a problem depending on how hard or easy it seems is a research mindset. Of course it doesn't make sense to apply that same mindset to more business-oriented problems (unless the business itself is research)!

Both research and business related problems are interesting. You don't have to swing between two extremes every time you have an epiphany.

Just my two cents. Nice article!
