Learning about life from a puzzle....

1-Don’t force a fit. If something is meant to be, it will come together naturally.

2-When things aren’t going so well, take a break. Everything will look different when you return.

3-Be sure to look at the big picture. Getting hung up on the little pieces only leads to frustration.

4-Perseverance pays off. Every important puzzle went together bit by bit, piece by piece.

5-When one spot stops working, move to another. But be sure to come back later (see #4).

6-The creator of the puzzle gave you the picture as a guidebook.

7-Variety is the spice of life. It’s the different colors and patterns that make the puzzle interesting.

8-Working together with friends and family makes any task fun.

9-Establish the border first. Boundaries give a sense of security and order.

10-Don’t be afraid to try different combinations. Some matches are surprising.

11-Take time often to celebrate your successes—even little ones.

12-Anything worth doing takes time and effort. A great puzzle can’t be rushed.
