How Do We Translate the Problems That We Care About Into Mathematical Models?

I mean my research is a kind of very theoretical mathematical type of research there are like several components in the process one component is how do we translate the problems or the kind of philosophical or informal problems that we care about into mathematics. Then there's like how do we solve the mathematical problems that result and those two processes they are kind of living in some kind of a close look with each other because if I come up with some mathematical model and then I analyze it and it leads to conclusions which don't make sense then you know I need to go back and revise my assumptions. But on the other hand sometimes I'm playing with the math and something just comes out ofPlaying with the math can tell
