ANECDOTE

Maze Solving With Eleanor

  • Brian shares a playful moment solving hidden-picture mazes with his daughter Eleanor and channels Stephen Covey while doing it.
  • He admits starting mazes from the end might be 'cheating' but argues you make the rules when you create the game.
ADVICE

Start From The End

  • Begin with the end in mind by literally starting your maze from the finish and working backward.
  • If you create the game, you get to create the rules, so use reverse-starting to simplify complex problems.
ADVICE

Pick A Specific Maze

  • Pick a specific challenging maze in your life (energy, work, or love) and commit to using it for this exercise.
  • Visualize the optimal resolution and see yourself as the best, most radiant version who has overcome it.
