    Heaps of comments here but nobody has pointed out he defined the goal after defining the problem. That's cheating.

    Step one is to define the goal. Then you work out how to reach the goal. (Gather information and form a hypothesis) Then you take steps toward the goal. (Test your hypothesis to make sure you stepped in the right direction.)
