Some inspirational speakers believe that sleep is overrated. Well I am here to prove them wrong and to tell you that sleep is as essential as food, and without it you will not be able to give your your best at whatever you do.

What makes us want something more than anyone? Why do we do it? take a listen to Niv and I as we dive deep into this fascinating topic.
When dealing with unknowns we tend to get intimidated. Psychology has taught us that our brains like predictable outcomes, if not we tend to walk away. This is the reason why so many of us don’t like math. It requires us to break major problems into parts before we can determine the solution.
How can we overcome the anxiety of ambiguity? Are there frameworks to deal with it? How can I tackle ambiguity gracefully?
What is ambiguity?
Based on the Oxford dictionary: “The quality of being open to more than one interpretation;inexactness.”
Understanding:
We know that ambiguity is a problem, however what makes ambiguity more difficult than a problem is that we might not know the type of problem initially.
E.g how many police officers are there in the US.? Or how many flights are active at the moment in the world? How big is the ocean? While a proper google search might give you the answer instantly, that will not be the case if you are tasked to solve what has not been solved before. If you want to feel comfortable with ambiguity this is the scope of questions you need to feel comfortable.
Techniques:
Thoughts:
Employers nowadays love math majors, and computer scientists not because of the skills they gain during school, but because these people tend to be attracted to problem solving. Issues attract them, and solving them is joy rather than a chore.
With today’s problems, such as an ever growing traffic on top of a growing population will need new ways to look at problems that have not been tried before. We have to embrace uncertainty like our friend, welcome it and discover what it may have for us.
We take for granted the importance of mental health. Take a listen at how important it is.
