The Puzzle of Life (with A.J. Jacobs) - Ep 144

A.J. Jacobs believes that puzzles can save the world. The famously obscure 4-time New York Times best-selling author of books like The Know-It-AllThanks a Thousand, and The Year of Living Biblically tells us what we can learn from them in his new book The Puzzler: One Man’s Quest to Solve the Most Baffling Puzzles Ever, from Crosswords to Jigsaws to the Meaning of Life. We talked about some great life lessons A.J. gleaned from puzzles, including:

  • Start with the end in mind

  • Embrace the eraser (i.e. your first impression might not be accurate!), and most importantly,

  • PAY ATTENTION, KNUCKLEHEAD!
