International Women’s Day | Dr. Shawna Pandya | Solve for XX: A call to future leaders to #BeBoldForChange Break things down. We are often told to ‘think big,’ but sometimes, in so doing, we intimidate ourselves with the enormity of the task that lies ahead. To get around this, in my start-up days, my co-founder and I jokingly developed the “sushi principle,” – that is, break things down. The best way to break a 1000 mile journey down is to start with a single step. Nobody becomes an expert and virtuoso overnight. That comes through hours of labour and years of practice. So whether you want to learn to play the piano or how to be an aerospace engineer, the key is to break things down into bite-sized pieces – just like sushi (or tofu-shi, for us vegetarians).
