My dad gave me a similar advice too. Turns out this advice works with my personality: everything can be considered a puzzle and I have great fun working things out. I like figuring things out to understand them. Allows me to extrapolate on them and make fairly okay/spot on predictions. Works well on most fields from math to computer science. Doesn't work as well when you try to apply this on human beings. That I think is where I come into a lot of difficulty when interacting with humans. Trying to understand humans is not like trying to understand machine parts of math theorems. You cannot take them apart. I still have no idea how to understand how humans work
