Epiphanies

    Progress is never straightforward, and the learning curve is never smooth. Evolution occurs in great leaps, step changes. These discontinuities are the way we break with the past, free ourselves from the limitations of our old modes of thinking, take the game to a higher level. We prepare the ground for inspiration by learning to be open to change, by constantly questioning our assumptions, by not clinging so tightly to our beliefs, by deliberately exposing ourselves to diversity, by engaging with those we disagree with. We cultivate our imagination. Grand epiphanies are the cumulative effect of numerous humble insights.
