It’s hard to measure how much disabling effect our “user-friendly” culture has had on the average person who struggles to find the patience and persistence needed to solve complex problems. But the evidence of that effect is all around us every day. When people get used to “Quick Start” guides and “easy-to-follow” IKEA-like assembly instructions, they eventually suffer a lack of problem solving skills. In Episode 8 (Wednesday, noon CST) I’ll show you how that can become a good thing for anyone who wants to have fresh impact on their corner of the world.
