Have the time to connect more than two dots together." Is time really the issue? There will never be enough time to accomplish everything you want, and if something is really important to you, you will re-arrange things to make time. Connecting the dots shouldn't be a solitary pursuit; sometimes you encounter a block and can't make the connection no matter how much time you have. Connecting the dots with at least one other person should maybe be the jumping off point for collaborating. “3. Have the time to connect more than two dots together.”
