The Value of Tinkering

Tinkering, or the act of experimenting and exploring without a specific goal or expectation, is a lost art that adults should rediscover. The most fulfilling and successful projects often begin as simple explorations and experiments. For instance, the creation of a successful camera app started with the use of a two-megapixel camera, which may seem insignificant at the time. Tinkering allows for innovation through experimentation without the pressure of achieving immediate results. It also helps develop skills, fosters resilience by embracing mistakes, and breaks the monotony of everyday routines.
