Discovery is
seeing what everybody else has seen, and
thinking what nobody else has thought.
~ Albert Szent-Gyorgyi

Start by clearing space in your schedule for
rest, daydreaming and serendipity. Take
breaks away from your desk, especially when
you get stuck on a problem.

going to be the circumstances you can't plan
for. There's always the unexpected relevance
and the serendipity.

part in medical and scientific advances.

Engineering serendipity is this idea that we
can help people come across unexpected but
helpful connections at a better than random
rate. And in some ways it's based on trying
to reassess this notion of serendipitous as
lucky - to think of serendipitous as smart.
~
Ethan Zuckerman
What people call serendipity sometimes is
just having your eyes open.
