You are correct.

We have been conditioned from birth on how to operate.

Thinking in terms of OR is congruent with our biology. Or requires a lot less brainpower. It's reactionary.

Applying nuance to a topic requires one to pause and think.

Nice article.

thank you! the pause is the hardest part for me. reaction is fast and easy. and nuance requires thoughtful intention from me.

I’ve learned it's one of the keys to moving up to the next level.

Each level we get stuck due to limitations in our thinking and behavior.

We have to repeatedly do things to get good, which engrains patterns and habits.

Which is necessary to reach the end the level.

But to move onto the next, we have to shatter those patterns because each level requires different things.

Rinse and repeat.
