J.J. Abrams: The mystery box
I really enjoyed this TED talk by J.J. Abrams.
Key points that stood out for me:
- Sometimes mystery is more important than knowledge
- Mystery is the catalyst for imagination
- Mystery offers Infinite possibility
- A blank page is a mystery box
- Stories are mystery boxes
- The difference between what you think you're getting vs what you're really getting is often profound
- The mystery box IS all of us - what is really inside of you?
