Nathan writes: ‘Lately, I’ve been playing a lot of chess. It’s a welcome diversion from news I can’t change. My biggest hurdle? Not fully noticing the immediate situation, especially in puzzles where I sometimes confuse the directions of black and white. This leads to missing “obvious” moves. 

My personal “aha moment” is realising the power of seeing the evidence in front of me  and how I can hone that skill. In conversations, how can we better help the human we’re working with truly see what’s unfolding right in front of them, identifying their own obvious next moves and insights?’

PS from Claire – Find your obvious is also an improv principle
