Because we interact with reality indirectly through the lens of our mental models - the internal framework (beliefs) that shape our perception of the world, based on our stories, assumptions and plans. </span></p><p style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="color: #000000;">We can learn to deliberately organize information to create mental models that align with the real world. The essence of systems thinking. </span></p><p style="font-size: 100%;">Join me as I strive to increase my awareness of the true meaning and motivations behind the thoughts that form the decisions I make. </p><p style="font-size:...<a href=https://www.joelkampf.com/blog/awareness-to-insight>Read More</a>
