What I see in different shades of gray, from behind my reading glasses
John-Paul Flintoff clarifies in the School of Life:
an improviser doesn’t sit waiting for the perfect moment to arrive. An improviser takes whatever is available, and makes the best use of it. Where others may see only unpromising materials and situations, an improviser sees abundant possibilities.
But those possibilities can only be realised if we train ourselves to accept what we have been given, and to tap into our natural creativity.
Dr Ben Martynoga writes about the connected brain in the School of Life:
The information, entertainment and connectedness that the internet provides is highly compelling and often hugely useful. However ultimately we have to decide which devices to use, when to use them, and when to simply turn them off.
