We started a puzzle this season, and another thing that I stumbled into was seeing things from a different perspective.

Sometimes when we are sitting in front of the puzzle with all the pieces scattered around we can get to a point where we get a bit stuck. Where the momentum we just had, completely slows down. Even with breaks and pauses, everything starts feeling hard and a bit of a grind.

That’s when I accidentally walked up to the puzzle, which was upside down / facing away from me, and quickly found two pieces in quick succession.

It doesn’t make sense that I would find pieces and know where to put it down when the puzzle is upside down! Yet, sometimes we need to take a step back and look at our situation from a completely different point of view!

Thank you for your notion collection!
