KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Life becomes far more liberating when we reframe each moment in life as a challenge from which we can draw learnings.
• Development comes faster if we refuse to adhere to one type of problem solving, and instead adapt ourselves to suit the problem.
• When you are presented with a problem, instead of diving straight in, always take time to reflect upon the best way of tackling it.
• When you are in a flow state, it provides a sense of euphoria and presence. It allows us to become far more connected to ourself.

BEST MOMENTS

'Seeing the world as a puzzle has improved my life'

'The key to life is being much more flexible in your thinking'

'Ask yourself - is there a better way to do this?'
