Connect the Dots
Manage episode 431276273 series 3344102
Dot-to-dot. Connect the dots. As a kid, you probably spent time pouring over a page with numbered dots scattered around in what seemed like a random method. If we started at Dot One, drew a line to Dot 2, and continued in the same method, eventually the lines we use to connect the dots would form a picture.
But ‘connecting the dots’ isn’t just a puzzle game for kids. It is also used as an idiom in life. When we don’t fully understand a situation, we are told to ‘connect the dots’. In other words, we need to start at the beginning, move to the next point, and start following the dots until we finally understand what is taking place – or rather, a figurative picture begins to form.
Creating a plan for your simple life may be as simple as creating your own Connect the Dots game. Listen in and start at Dot #1. You may just discover you are creating a one-of-a-kind masterpiece instead of a simple game for kids.
