ACTIVITY 1. WARM UP EXERCISE. Read the quotes by “Great Minds”, highlight the message of the quotes with life-taken examples. Share your explanations with the whole group.

Albert Einstein Lao Tzu

1. 
   If I had an hour to solve a problem I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.
   
2. 
   When life gives you a lemon make lemonade.
   
3. 
   A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.
   
4. 
   Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.
