Begin with a question

Good ideas often start with paying attention. Before opening another tool, take a moment to describe the problem in plain language.

A useful question is often more valuable than a quick answer.

A small practice

  • Write down what you notice.
  • Talk with someone who sees things differently.
  • Make something small and learn from it.

Leave room for what comes next.
