see what others don't - who are awake to the high probability of
the improbable - can achieve and contribute in ways their more
blinkered colleagues cannot. A bracing and hopeful antidote to a
world addicted to efficiency and control

luck in Connect the Dots, which offers excellent practical guidance
for all

which I might previously have second-guessed myself, I am now
determined to say something kind, to thank someone, to make a
connection
