I have been doing puzzles since I was a kid. I love all kinds of puzzles: number puzzles, word puzzles, jigsaw puzzles. And, the work I do as a Behavioral Kinesiologist involves discovering and solving challenging patterns in the brain - much like puzzle pieces - that are holding someone back from moving forward on their path.
I find word puzzles, where I have to take a jumble of letters to form a word, the most challenging. Often, I keep putting the same letters together expecting to get the right word! Huh. I have learned to simply walk away for a few minutes or longer and voila,I see the word almost instantly.
Isn't this a wonderful and simple way to solve problems that life throws at us? Step away, clear the mind and return with a new perspective.
