The advice given to Miranda Hart that changed her life

KISS, an acronym for Keep it Simple and Straightforward, was a principle established by the Navy (Google tells me the US Navy, which is disappointing as it sounds so delightfully British) suggesting that all systems work at their best when kept simple. It was adopted by engineering and technology designers and I've heard it used in tennis coaching with its more common phrasing Keep it Simple, Stupid. I prefer "Sweetie" for the gentler tone.
