Ask anyone who knows me patience isn't one of my virtues.  I am a nervous hyper individual.  I try to stay still when talking to clients so not to make them nervous.  Definitely something I have to work at.

Point today my wife is doing a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle.  She says it's relaxing.  I say it means nothing better to do.  Any way I have to walk by every five minutes with my nervous self and try to add some pieces.  I think we are adding about ten pieces an hour.  At six hours a day it will take about 9 days at this rate.  I know I can't handle this pace.

Doing Jigsaw puzzles helps you to see all the possibilities.  It is great for your vision.  You probably would also enjoy 3rd level Spider Solitaire.

If you want a real challenge, buy a 1,500 piece jigsaw puzzle.  They are absolutely awesome!

I am convinced that such activity is not a waste of time.  It will help you to think outside the box and to be more open to what is going on around you.  You will be awakened to opportunities in your business.

Keep it up!

I love jigsaw puzzles. When I was pregnant I sat nights on end doing them (1000 to 2000 pieces) and couldn't go to bed until I finished some! Then again it was more comfortable than laying in bed. ~Rita

Jigsaw puzzle are good exercise for your eyes and your mind. It might even help you to learn some patience! Have a glass of wine and force yourself to sit there for 15 minutes, and the next time try 30 minutes etc. You can do it! It is relaxing and fun for the whole family. Good luck!

LOL.. Such good old-fashioned fun.  My husband got into those a few years ago and we have collected some really cool ones.  It probably is good for the brain!
