In Monday’s issue, I adapted five exercises from the book Creative Acts for Curious People, by Stanford d.school executive director Sarah Stein Greenberg. There’s one more I set aside to share with you (subscribers) — it’s a bit more introspective, but maybe particularly appropriate as we approach a new year.

In short, it’s a prompt on Learning How You Learn. As with Monday’s post, full credit to Creative Acts for the inspiration; I have trimmed and tweaked for TAoN purposes. Quotes are from the book.
