不破也立。阿三家的母鸡生了好多蛋，爸爸问阿三，怎样才能把鸡蛋完整地竖立起来？阿三眉头一皱计上心来，他拿起一只鸡蛋，啪的往桌上用力一磕，鸡蛋被磕破了顶端竖立起来。阿三得意地对爸爸说：三岁孩子都有的智慧，能难住我吗？这叫不破不立！爸爸摇头叹了一口气：不要总是用脑筋急转弯的思维方式去解决现实问题，这种方式看似新鲜，其实，早都老掉牙了。我是让你不磕破鸡蛋，也能把它完整地竖立起来。这下阿三犯难了，他摆弄了半天，手心都出汗了，也没把鸡蛋完整地竖立起来。鸡蛋煮熟了，爸爸拿起一只，用力一转，于是，鸡蛋就像陀螺一样旋转着完整地竖立起来。是的，有些问题，需要我们创新思维，不能沿袭俗套,动不动就先破，建立在破上的立，总会有一定损失的。做事情要尽力求得两全其美，不破也立。难道这样不好吗？
