    That's when you know for a fact that the glass is full :-).
    If the glass is already full, I don't see the reason to change the path and look for other ways to fill the glass.

    i get that. as you said before when you realized your questions are flawed and there are an underlying problem and the solution, your glass is full.

    my question was when you would know this glass is not filling up with the current path, so you have to find another?

    Ah! that's a good question.

    It’s like being lost in the middle of the ocean, incredibly thirsty, and having no idea that saltwater is bad for you. You scoop up a handful to drink, and for a split second, you feel relieved, but then the thirst comes back ten times worse. You figure it must just be that specific spot in the water, so you row your boat a little further, try again, and get the exact same result. Still, you keep going. Eventually, you hit land. You spot a waterfall in the distance, run up to it, and take a drink. Instantly, you feel the difference. You drink more and more, It's refreshing, it's real, and finally, your thirst is actually quenched.

    Surely its not as dramatic as this but I guess you get the point. :-)
