In his workshops, Yarin entertains  questions about the Israeli spirit of innovations and shares anecdotes from the Israeli and Jewish tradition of learning.

 Albert Einstein :
  • "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them"
  • "If at first, the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it"
  • "The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination"
  • "Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere"
  • "The important thing is to not stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing"
  • "Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new"

Why? 
  • Curiosity: Israelis are so curious, Don't be surprised when the taxi driver will ask you where are you from and how much you earn.
  • Resilience:A culture that survives adversities and fights for its life for thousands of years had developed resilience. Bouncing back is part of the genes.
  • Jews have the highest ratio of comedians per capita. Using humor to defuse challenges and not taking it too hard. 
  • Accepting Failure. Failure is culturally acceptable.Giving up or being lazy are not.
  • "Chutzpah" - the incredible guts to challenge almost anything and dare to think the unthinkable.
  • Investing in R&D: Israel is among the leading in government investment on R&D as a proportion of GDP.
  • Argumentative society:. Since young, kids are encouraged to ask and explore. A typical question when the kid comes back home is "what did you ask today"
  • Army: The service adds leadership capabilities of dealing with crucial decisions in real time, face them and not giving up. Young adults are exposed to development of sophisticated technologies, 
  • Sense of pride in R&D not to give up on a problem. When facing a closed door, the Israeli engineer will look for the window, if the window is closed, he will clime up the roof and try to get in via the chimney.  . 
  • "Can do" attitude - "Ein Beayot - Yesh Pitronot"  - "There are no problems, there are solutions"
