“Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something”.   Sensemaking is all about the ability to connect things to create new ideas. Quoting Maria Popova, who has really crystallized this notion, in order for us to truly create and contribute to the world, we have to be able to connect countless dots, to cross-pollinate ideas from a wealth of disciplines, to combine and recombine these pieces and build new castles.

I DON’T HAVE ANY EXTRA MONEY TO SAVE AND INVEST

Many people don’t start saving or don’t save more because they feel they don’t have any extra money. As Seedly founder Chew Tee Ming said: “The biggest barrier to saving is the high living expenses people incur every month after receiving their salary.”

What many people don’t do, however, is to examine their expenses to see where the money actually goes. By keeping track of every expense using an app such as Seedly or even a paper diary to write down your expenses, you can find out where your money goes and figure out where there may be options to spend a little less.

“Take a close look at your budget,” Women with Cents founder Natasha Janssens suggests, “and add up how much you spend on dining out, takeaways, clothes, TV subscriptions, or gym memberships. Be really honest with yourself about the must-haves vs the nice-to-haves.”

Overcome this myth by figuring out how you’re using your money, what you can spend less on, and saving just a little bit.

"How can Africa, the home to some of the largest bodies of water in the world, be said to have a water crisis? It doesn't, "it has a knowledge crisis".

In a powerful talk, he calls for Africa to make the production of knowledge within the continent rewarding and reclaim its position as a locus of learning on behalf of humanity."
