#36. Complete a 1000-piece puzzle

Completion Date: 11/2/2020   |   Partner: @all_that_jazz

Time to complete: ~14 hours (pretty disappointed...)
Puzzle Fun Fact: The record for a 1000-piece puzzle by a team of two is 1:01:29 hours by Joellen Beifuss and Pam Kerstetter at the US National Jigsaw Puzzle Championships 1986 in Ohio.
Puzzle Fun Fact #2: ​A study at the University of Michigan showed that doing puzzles for at least 25 minutes a day can boost your IQ by 4 points.
​
Life lessons from doing a puzzle:
  • ​Patience is a virtue.
  • When you’re feeling stuck, take a step back and look at the bigger picture.​
  • Sometimes you just get lucky. 
  • Keep plugging until something clicks, then all of a sudden the momentum will build.
  • It's good to take breaks.
  • Even if you think you’re missing pieces, don’t waste time looking for them or muddling over where they might be. Trust that you have everything you need, for now.
