It is easy to solve the cube in a mechanical way, "layer by layer", according to a memorized algorithm that has to deal with a relatively small number of cases; not overwhelming the average intellect in any way. Under this approach, it can be tedious to begin completely from the beginning, assembling a face. It is smarter to look for the most complete face, and possibly work the cube randomly to obtain a better one by chance.
