Do you have a simple explanation about ser and estar?

On of the worst things about learning Spanish is that there are two verbs for to be.  This is a big unesesary complication but you will never speak Spanish well unless you can use "ser" and "estar" correctly.

For example you use "ser" for professions.
EG:
Soy profesor - I am a teacher


Estar is often used for states:
Estoy cansada  - I am tired.
