Shift from Searching to Having a Vision

Play the Penny Game
"When You Come to a Fork in the Road, Take It!" — Yogi Berra While talking with students last week, we were introduced to the Penny Game. We had never heard of it before, but we love it. It is most fun when played with a group, but it works just as well by yourself....
