You know who also are masters of this? Freestyle battle rappers. The ability to create rhymes off the top of your head vs an opponent. Also stand up comedians, who do improv or comedic roasters that observationalist comedy,meaning they can crack on your shoes,clothes,hair etc etc. They seem to tap into this flow while battling each other.Look up a guy named Kraig Smith the roaster He does frame thinking at a genius level.
So basically it comes down to knowing your topic in depth while also having it cooked down to its very essence. I find this to be true to for myself. Good insight!

It requires a lot of knowledge and abstraction capacity in order to learn about it and take the framework. Not suitable for superficial and conformists.
I started out liking this, but as a composition and rhetoric teacher, I immediately began to think that when we increase speed, we lose context and nuance. Frameworks seem to take incredibly complex issues and boil them down into very simplistic (and limited) interpretations that restrict options and conversations rather than open them up. We also sacrifice our ability to listen effectively. We’re so busy trying to rush and be perceived a certain way that we aren’t really hearing what the other person is saying, and they may be saying good stuff that we can learn from.
Exactly what I was thinking throughout the video (halfway actually). Think outside the box. Someone who's good at talking or replying back fast doesn't necessarily means they're smarter.
While we can get stuck in a framework and overthink in misdirected ways, we all work with frameworks, whether you realize it or not. Many frameworks are developed organically, cognitive constructs learned naturally through everyday experiences. Intentionally digesting and reasoning through the frameworks we use increases efficiency and normalcy, which both improve communication. Being able to identify fitted frameworks and being able to break frame is important. When operating naturally, this doesn't restrict conversations, but the frameworks express a relational model that flows intuitively and only get stuck at dead ends when your understanding doesn't match with what's being communicated. It helps you to recognize when you really don't understand what others are saying. When they address something and use it in a way that's not consistent with your best matched framework, that indicates you need to inquire of them the framework and information they're using at that point to be able to reach understanding, or scan the related frameworks for some preloaded fault in that vicinity.
in brief: In this video, the presenter, Vicki, explains how to think fast before speaking by using frameworks. Frameworks are structures that organize thoughts and help identify key elements that influence a result. The video discusses the importance of reasoning from first principles, using examples of revenue and profit frameworks in a business context. Vicki suggests two ways to acquire frameworks: 1-Create them yourself by distilling the essence of your knowledge into structures. 2-Find hidden frameworks on the internet by extracting the key elements from existing information and organizing it into frameworks. She gives examples of frameworks like Ikigai (making money doing what you love) and Ethos, Pathos, and Logos (business storytelling). By building a library of frameworks and connecting them together, one can think fast on their feet and provide insightful responses to a variety of topics.

Thank you for this video! Very helpful. When I was young I was inarticulate and "slow" or completely withdrawn in conversations. I spent my 20's reading books on communication, psychology, spirituality, dating, etc. I took rigorous notes because I was desperate to become a more full version of myself. Now in my 30's I'm proud to say when I'm in conversation with people my mind is very open and active. I didn't have the terminology of "frameworks" but this video well demonstrates what I feel is going on inside my head. I love listening to people and watching the various internal frameworks link together and create connections. After years of this kind of study and practice it has become very strong and now almost intuitional, when I listen to people my mind delivers thoughts from these frameworks so quickly at times it's overwhelming but in a grandeur way like driving through a breath-taking mountain scape or something. Anyway thank you for putting language to this and for providing the examples. I subscribed and will listen to more of your voicings
it depends on the topic. People can be fluent in some areas and then struggle or completely avoid any other topics in order to look good all the time. Even the most fluent fast thinkers can struggle speaking if they don't know what are they talking about or have limited knowledge and experience. Problem is when people have knowledge and experience but still struggle talking about what they want to say. This is usually because they struggle speaking on other topics and carried the assumption that they are bad at talking about anything.

I used to struggle finding things to say when I was younger and when I started working in NYC in my early 20s I would be constantly pressed to have an answer for something, I don’t know exactly what happened but I started getting good at talking about things on the fly, after watching this video this is exactly what happened, you just understand the general idea or the essence of something and talk / evolve off of this. Not being able to find the words for something was when I was trying to get a specific answer

She is not talking about profit per se, ikegai per se, or pathos logos ethos per se, what she is talking about is finding broader categories and work from there as opposed to finding isolated details or facts
Here is a simple framework you can use to think fast before you speak: Identify your goal: What do you want to accomplish through your communication? Consider your audience: Who are you speaking to and what do they need or want to know? Gather information: What information do you need to present in order to achieve your goal and meet the needs of your audience? Organize your thoughts: How can you structure your information in a way that is clear and logical? Practice: If possible, practice what you will say in advance to help you feel more confident and prepared. Using this framework can help you quickly and effectively organize your thoughts and communicate them effectively.

@@iniciantepadawan6542 have you heard of aqal model. From integral culture? That quadrant model is quite useful. Its like a back drop to sort all knowledge- so like interior/exterior and matches research paradigms to a space. It's a whole culture so you can get sucked in. Haha. But just look into the AQAL map. And imagine yourself where the quadrants meet. Your self as in where effect meets affect. It's a good model to sort models :)
@@patricksullivan1827 it’s a good one, but i don’t like it’s duality. it doesn’t have ‘spin’ because it’s always dual. whereas as my model ;) has I/We/All - no it. there is no real Other but the other is always apart of the I. (Wilber starts to do this with Good True Beautiful, but fails by asserting 4 categories from those 3.)
Quick summ: Use relatable models from other places to break down a complex topic. Concepts transfer over, even from different fields. Everything has a beginning, middle, and end (stories, how-to instructions, workout routines, etc.). An algorithm for a small computer program is comparable to a recipe (ingredients -> variables, steps -> lines). The first step to solve _________ problem is to first identify the problem. All this dot-connecting can go on and on. Speaking of which, the ikigai model looks very useful in the biz world and it would not be a surprise to see it come up again, especially after watching this. I'm glad that this framework thinking is addressed in this vid. Thank you for bringing it to light!
Following you because of the simple fact that you have explained a very complex way of communicating with just one word, framework. Powerful! Continue to make more of these.
This video covers situations that occur in critical meetings. It’s for people like myself who can get easily flustered when the meeting is going in the wrong direction for the wrong reasons. It’s a great way to be prepared for a meeting and help redirect without becoming the negative stick in the mud.
I'm 35 years old and have been reading charlie munger, farnam street, James Clear and others like it for over a decade. If I'm being honest I often worry that the person across the table isn't considering enough variables if they oversimplify complex subjects when discussing strategy and/or how to move forward on a project, whatever the project may be. While I may be right sometimes, watching your video really helped me break what I consider to be some calcification in the way I view things. We cannot make perfect decisions, but constricting variables into frameworks as best as we can can at least help us initiate feedback loops in a more quantifiable way that will help us get better at getting s#!% done. Great video, thank you.
it's not about arriving at the right answer, it is about setting the person across the table back on their heels. if you are thinking about "variables" then frameworks aren't for you. try to think more in terms of FLY-SWATTERS. and aim for their forehead. hope that helps!
This video taught me a lot. It could also be called, talk in frameworks. I used to feel bad when I got confused in conversations. I saw some famous people just say the same stories over and over. So I decided to make my own answers that I can use anytime, anywhere. My best one is "I don’t know enough to have a good opinion."😂 My main problem is when I get excited I forget all about frameworks and just blurt out whatever I think.
Great video, congratulations! Actually, at school, many years ago, I was taught exactly what you say in this video: to speak clearly (or effectively), you have to think clearly. In order to do so, you need a theoretical framework to host your concepts. It could seem easy, but... It takes a lot of time and requires a lot of disciplined work. As far as I can see, not many people ever reach this level of maturity.
Another, closely-related, topic is what I've always been able to do. When someone explains something to me, and I know nothing about the topic nor recognize any terminology, I create a framework from what they explain overall. E.g. "Something large has 7 components, the first one works with the fifth one, the third one is related to the first one the seventh one is very unique and explains all the others to greater detail." Then I ask them about (or I discover them later) each component and what the terminology means. Each time I get that information, I'm able to populate the framework as if hanging placards on hooks on the framework, right where they should go, but I don't have to go back and ask to have the whole thing re-explained. When I understand something for the purpose of discussing it intelligently, I like to know the overall structure, and then the minute details. Once I know this, the rest falls into place, like a jar "full" of sand being filled further with water so that now it really is full.
This information is given in a $10K+ high-end course through the whole module from 4 modules total, so its equal to $2500 almost. Of course it was more lengthy and in detail, but that doesn't mean it explained better than here. Great work!
I collect models from across disciplines, and tweak them to suit my needs if they cover concepts of no relevance to my field or topic. I love visual models~ they really help me to unpack my thoughts on a topic, think it through in a different way etc
I never knew there were other mental model enthusiasts. I thank RUclips for recommending me this video. Instantly subscribed. Can't wait to see through the rest of your content.
I love this because I already do it, but called it “thought trees”. Basic concepts, branching off into different applications, branching off into examples and potential, branching off into statistics and sources.
I am so happy to find your channel. I've always known that systems and frameworks are an advantage in nearly every aspect of speaking or generating ideas for a project. As an individual who struggles with ADD, frameworks are essential. Thank you.
As a consultant myself, I speak this way in everyday life because this pattern of thinking has become a muscle to me. In a social context though, I’ve got comments saying, “you speak like a consultant” which sometimes sound negative. If you want to practice the framework thinking and communication, it is so important to have the right people to engage with.
I do this all my life. I was born this way. Like Elon Musk, I am a type architect (INTP). So a framework= a basic concept. Ampere x Volt =Watt. Very logic Flow x pressure = Amount. In Music, C minor= C major, which has stepped back a semitone in the middle (keeping it simple). In a story you have epic/lyric and drama. Epic is the narrative/storyline. Drama=dialogues and lyric=describing things more poetically. So distill everything back to basic concepts. You can fill in the details later. A human or animal is basically a tube: food comes in, goes out, adding oxygen, burn it slowly. Needs eyes and limbs to move itself to the food. Well, you get my drift.
Thank you. I had not come across the idea of framework thinking before. Reading your examples of your own framework thinking from the perspective of another INTP made this new concept click. I'm now able to frame my perspective which makes organising my thinking so much easier. E.g. Using your example of a story framework it was simple to create my own framework 'description' + 'new development description' = story Up until now I've always struggled to stay on track and tell an interesting story because I wasn't building on a framework. I.e. I never knew where to begin and finish. Now I have a framework to use to be sure I got my point across. It's great because I can scale it up i.e. add more detail to the description and/or development or scale it down just describe the bare bones of the description and/development. Also I can easily make a story more spicy/interesting by adding this to the both the description and development description 😅 I'm feeling so much more powerful and in charge of what I am saying 🎉❤ Thank you to both the creator of this video and the INFP commenter! Next. I just need to get faster and less clunky at applying this new knowledge and ability but I'm sure there is a system for that 😜😊
This is great. I wish i could work with other people toward a social organization like this... A shared index of models with people i trust... What a dream !
This is my first time watching Vicky's video (I saw it on my YT homepage). In the first 8 seconds, I paused the video and immediately checked to timestamps to get a glimpse of the content. Then, moved to the comments to speculate if this video is worth watching. A few moments later, I am writing this comment before even continuing to play the video because I want to say that Vicky is either a management consultant or a former consultant. To validate this hypothesis, I inspected her YT channel and instantly I saw her featured video on "Why I quit management consulting" which confirmed my assumption. The end. I just want to practice story-telling and actually watch videos lately about being articulate in speaking. Now let me continue to watch the video. hahah
Finished watching the video. Key takeaways: -Build a framework inventory. I usually have notes for frameworks that I deduce from books and courses but never organize them into a single file. -Create a story inventory. I got this idea from the first key takeaway. In fact, I'm adding my first story above into the story vault.
This totally blew my mind. I think I've always been one to seek frameworks so I can organize my messy thoughts, but didn't know it. This video made that way of thinking more tangible so I now know exactly what I'm looking for. Great explanation and examples!
@VickyZhaoBEEAMP why did you assent that you gave an example for making your own framework when you didn't? Can you now take responsibility and give an actual example?
Socratic Method: A framework for questioning and answering that encourages critical thinking and the exploration of assumptions and beliefs. Toulmin Model: A framework for analyzing arguments that consists of six elements: claim, grounds, warrant, backing, rebuttal, and qualifier. Logical Fallacies: A framework for identifying common errors in reasoning, such as ad hominem attacks, straw man arguments, and false dilemmas. Deductive Reasoning: A framework for drawing conclusions based on premises and logical rules, where the conclusion necessarily follows from the premises. Inductive Reasoning: A framework for drawing conclusions based on observations and evidence, where the conclusion is probabilistic rather than certain. Abductive Reasoning: A framework for generating hypotheses or explanations based on limited evidence or incomplete information. Argument Mapping: A framework for visually representing arguments and their components, including premises, conclusions, and supporting evidence. Bayesian Reasoning: A framework for updating probabilities based on new evidence, where prior probabilities are combined with likelihood ratios to produce posterior probabilities. Game Theory: A framework for analyzing strategic interactions between multiple players, where each player's choices and outcomes are influenced by the choices of others. Decision Trees: A framework for making decisions under uncertainty by mapping out the possible outcomes and probabilities associated with different choices. Cost-Benefit Analysis: A framework for evaluating the costs and benefits of different options or decisions, often used in economics and public policy. Ethical Frameworks: A set of frameworks that provide guidelines for making ethical decisions, including utilitarianism, deontological ethics, virtue ethics, and care ethics.
Thanks for putting this out elegantly. I work in assurance and consulting for almost a decade now and find the framework-way-of-thinking very useful and impactful to my career.
This is what is often taught in universities. They are often called paradigms, structures or frameworks. That’s why we have certain general education class requirements in the first few years. The theory is that we can use a variety of different paradigms or lenses to interpret and discuss fact patterns in different topics, genres or practice areas. The difficulty with this kind of thought process is that it does not necessarily account for the creativity needed to interpret nuanced fact patterns and solve unique problems. Like Bruce Lee said-be like water. It can flow or it can crash. It fits any mold necessary. ~ It’s worth noting that Elon musk and other scientific minds tend to like this way of thinking because it is orderly and logical. But arts and the humanities might require more creativity.

@@CFthorinlol, how so? The statement is biologically correct. Hormones and their interactions with the brain influence brain and body development (keyword) from the womb to the tomb. Brains are not static.
Correct me if I'm wrong. So in plan language, frameworks are like guidance for thinking , problem solving or decision making. They are mental models, which is a representation or explanation of how something works. Frameworks are telling us what are the essentials structure, the rest are just details.
Close, I think frameworks get us a few steps closer to how humans process information. Information Processing Model suggests cognitive function is formulaic. By adhering to a framework, you are aligning your tendencies to how our brains are wired. An observational gap between those who apparently know exactly what to say and those who cant seem go articulate I believe stems from the general perception vs reality dissonance.
@@VickyZhaoBEEAMP I just started to build a framework library in onenote app and it looks quite messy ... at this point figuring out how to sort and structure them in visually appealing way. If you share best practices that would be useful! Thanks for your content again.
Hmm, this is interesting. I've been struggling with speech and general cognitive organization recently. It feels that I know so much, but I'm able to reproduce so little. I knew frameworks existed, but I never really paid attention to them - I would just assume that my mind would do it on its own. You've pointed out that it's not an automatic process - we've got to deliberately organize our thoughts and ideas (at least to start off). Thanks for sharing - this video has the potential to bring huge change
@@KAIZORIANEMPIRE high ram? naw, special? maybe... that or time and research... that is how I did it, ponder. Hope you have a great day & Safe Travels!
I already did this but didn't really have a name for it because I assumed everybody did. I created my own way of approaching people and so far it hasn't failed me. I always just connected topics in school to applications in real life and it was always easy. i never knew frameworks had names though. thank you for the video
Frameworks and paradigms are fine and useful for keeping conversations focused on the situation at hand, but thinking conceptually and from first principles is more important. Sometimes frameworks and paradigms trap people in ineffective focuses.
Thank you from a 48 ages woman from vietnam. Sorry for my bad english. Just want to express that what you say are exactly what i've self questioned long before. Since i"m kind of loosing/forgeting my point when i am among talking with others.
Thank you. I've been doing this myself for a few years now, but I called it a "mosaic". It's a bit like unsupervised learning, where I detach myself from the information/ideas, identify patterns, connections, commonalities if there are. Slowly but surely, you have a tapestry of things. The bad/irrelevant ideas erode with time, leaving only the dense, crystalized scaffolding of the framework visible. There are many layers to this. "the only thing I know for certain is that I know nothing."
This is how I have thought for as long as I can remember. I also find that creating frameworks to organise my frameworks can be helpful. It’s not a silver bullet to always knowing what to say (unless you always say something related to the most surface-level frameworks), but it can be very helpful. I do like that principle of just starting at the surface when someone asks a question. They may be missing something that seems obvious to you if you think in frameworks. If they think it’s obvious too, then you can use it to establish common ground and get on the same page.
I solve this by creating a hierarchical framework in which I store nuances as children of the more basic frameworks. I find that the equations that describe natural processes tend to follow this structure naturally. Of course, they usually lack nuance, but there’s almost always a more nuanced equation at a deeper level.

Hey great topic! I think most of us use frameworks due to different reasons: work, study... But the ones who develop more are curious people, and for a simple reason: we like to learn and distil the essence of topics. You then find frameworks, simplified models or abstractions of very different topics. If you study engineering and other applied science, you may find yourself equipped with usual frameworks and models of systems, and even better, how to create new ones. Anyway, a great topic, good to explore further. Please keep sharing your thoughts, or if you want to debate about it, let's do it!
Hello I happened on to your channel by accident. I was looking for a MASH episode and this is what came up somehow. I am greatful for your video and will send it to my grand kids as it's got all kinds of nuggets of wisdom. Thank you!
Vicky, I stumbled across your video when looking for ways to improve and articulate my speech. Your content is outstanding and extremely useful. Thank you!
Absolutely! Articulation and quick thinking are skills anyone can develop with practice. I used to struggle with expressing my ideas clearly, especially in high-pressure situations. Thinking from first principles is such a game-changer! It's like having a mental toolkit ready for problem-solving. I recently explored this during the Sense of Humor Improvement Program by Habit10x, where they emphasized the importance of storytelling in communication. Remember, the more you practice these frameworks, the more natural your responses will become, making every conversation an opportunity to shine!

I was reading the comments and I think I came here for the similar reasons, while I absolutely appreciate how you related it to business, but I really would love to see you cover it more for a general audience. However, otherwise I got so much value from this video as someone who struggles with conversation, thank you :) I COMMENTED TOO SOON, IKIGAI! SUBSCRIBED!
I’m a fourth year law student and before I started my mum would always say lawyers speak slow. Well now my boyfriend says I talk slow😂 it’s because I am constantly thinking about how to respond to something in the most accurate way possible. I think more soft skills in this space would be confidence when speaking by being exposed to both writing and people who speak about the same things.
Love this story - and there is inherent confidence in those who speak with intent and care. I'm thinking of making a video on this actually! Stay tuned!

Really love your ideas on storytelling. The frameworks for ethos, pathos and logos make a lot of sense for a place to start. Love how you shot and edited this video as well, it looks really great!
As a writer and orator, these words you and she are using are simply called WRITING. Because Americans are not taught how to Write Well as a System and a Structure, that is to say by Rules and Style, we don't learn how to Speak. And so on.

I always used this technique in exams and I think we all have used it unknowingly. When I have to write answers for a long question, it is impossible to mug up all the things. So what I do is to just remember the heading and subheading of each topic, like a flowchart, our teachers told us to do so. All now I have to do in exams is just expand those subheading or bullets or points or whatever you can call it. I always scored slightly higher than my friends using this technique🤓🤓, it also saved my time.
It's interesting seeing this described out. I've always felt like I've done this kind of thing since I was a child naturally. I think it was more that no one was able to break me of that habit that I was able to keep it and see good use of it. I wonder how much of this is not that we're not trained in it, but that we're trained out of it due to failed schooling models.
Thank you for producing this educational content. The internet needs this. Where would be a great place to begin learning more about Mental Models and Thinking Frameworks in an even more simplified form? Would you recommend any books? If so which ones?
There’s a gap in the market for this. I think Shane Parrish’s blog Farnam Street is a good resource, but I still want to make something more practical … let me know what you think of Shane’s work!
Thank you Vicky. Invaluable information about a framework for frameworks. I often struggle to juggle information between different high level topics. I’m going to give a this a shot and build myself a collection of structured frameworks to organize myself!
Definitely interested in delving deeply into frameworks. When I was ~5 I realized there was very little I knew for certain. I decided to develop a foundation of knowledge that I can trust, and build upon that reliable foundation. Throughout my life I continued that effort. This provided a high degree of understanding and confidence about many subjects, philosophies and perspectives. Frameworks is similar and equally universally applicable. Love the concept.
Your video popped up on my feed probably because it matches my interest and search. However, I was really drawn by your videos and I was quite impressed. Well done!
So basically, you'd need to get educated and acquired knowledge in the field of area you want to be good at... in order to talk smart. This is common sense, right?
You can be brilliant in your area of expertise and still not talk very smart. Trust me. I’ve seen it for many years. On the contrary, you can know very little and still have intelligent interactions when you learn to think in frameworks.
Hey I’m loving your channel. Mental models are so helpful and they’re something I’m always looking to use more. It was cool to hear about your story-telling marketing framework.
Isn't this framework something that will built naturally when a person has a well understanding of a topic? What if they talk or throw a question about the things that we do not understand, or prepare the framework yet?
The timing is perfect. I'm just going into a pay negotiation with one of my staff and the first principle of revenue= units *price just gave me the perfect framework to handle this awkward conversation. This video links nicely with your 6 mental models of Charlie Munger video
Your content is very good. One thought I have to offer has to do with SYNTAX: When people talk about HOW THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY… is the correct syntax model, not -When people talk about HOW CAN I MAKE MORE MONEY? -- where you introduce a direct question instead of indirect one. It shows that you don’t understand the function of “HOW” in indirect questions. We never posit a direct question in this way; “How I can get to the bus station?” We posit the question this way: “How CAN I get to the bus station.” This is a direct question.
Thank you, this is very useful for RUclips as well. 🙌 I've been struggling (for years) with scripting & blogging. Because I have soooo much to say. Hope this will help me to finally script around the 10 min mark. Instead of 30+ min... 😅
Haha that struggle is too real!! Friends still tell me I need to get my videos down to even more bite sized packets haha.. 😂 I’m working on maybe 4-5 mins videos now
@@VickyZhaoBEEAMP Oh dear, sounds like it's part of the job... Haha. Thanks! 😅 I will try varying lengths next then. Maybe more mini tutorials, series AND longer lectures. I guess it also depends on audience expectations: Are they looking for a quick answer (to fix something small) or do they want to sit down to fully submerge (go more in depth)? Haha 🤔😇
Your video’s just appeared in my recommendations. This was really brilliantly done. You are incredibly smart in a way that few of us are. I want to teach this to everyone I have to listen to. And I subscribed.
Thanks for sharing this. I just realised that this way of thinking isn’t naturally instilled for everyone, including me. I am an engineer, thus I always connect the dots into diagrams or mind-map in my mind. I shouldn’t take it for granted and think I’m born with this. It’s a skill that can be learned and trained. So anyone also can adopt it.
I love the way you put it. If we have it we don’t have to take it for granted, and if we’re not born with it, this is an invitation to explore and embody something new

You know who also are masters of this?
Freestyle battle rappers.
The ability to create rhymes off the top of your head vs an opponent.
Also stand up comedians, who do improv or comedic roasters that observationalist comedy,meaning they can crack on your shoes,clothes,hair etc etc.
They seem to tap into this flow while battling each other.Look up a guy named Kraig Smith the roaster He does frame thinking at a genius level.
So basically it comes down to knowing your topic in depth while also having it cooked down to its very essence. I find this to be true to for myself. Good insight!
It’s high IQ. Applying the scientific method, the fundamentals of logic etc. there’s a reason behind everything. also, make and female brains are inverted, eg content information first vs feelings context how you said it
It requires a lot of knowledge and abstraction capacity in order to learn about it and take the framework.
Not suitable for superficial and conformists.
How? Can you give an example as her explanation failed hard. She didn't give structure
I started out liking this, but as a composition and rhetoric teacher, I immediately began to think that when we increase speed, we lose context and nuance. Frameworks seem to take incredibly complex issues and boil them down into very simplistic (and limited) interpretations that restrict options and conversations rather than open them up. We also sacrifice our ability to listen effectively. We’re so busy trying to rush and be perceived a certain way that we aren’t really hearing what the other person is saying, and they may be saying good stuff that we can learn from.
Exactly what I was thinking throughout the video (halfway actually). Think outside the box. Someone who's good at talking or replying back fast doesn't necessarily means they're smarter.
yes exactly this
"5 signs you’re in love"
"3 red flags that means it’s time to quit your job"
So clickbait-y listicles are useful frameworks now?
While we can get stuck in a framework and overthink in misdirected ways, we all work with frameworks, whether you realize it or not. Many frameworks are developed organically, cognitive constructs learned naturally through everyday experiences. Intentionally digesting and reasoning through the frameworks we use increases efficiency and normalcy, which both improve communication. Being able to identify fitted frameworks and being able to break frame is important.
When operating naturally, this doesn't restrict conversations, but the frameworks express a relational model that flows intuitively and only get stuck at dead ends when your understanding doesn't match with what's being communicated. It helps you to recognize when you really don't understand what others are saying. When they address something and use it in a way that's not consistent with your best matched framework, that indicates you need to inquire of them the framework and information they're using at that point to be able to reach understanding, or scan the related frameworks for some preloaded fault in that vicinity.
One question!! I'm really interested in learning about composition and rhetoric, what advice or books would you recommend for ms?
Thank you for your videos. I’ve learned so much and continue to learn. 🤗💯📚📝🤓💕
in brief:
In this video, the presenter, Vicki, explains how to think fast before speaking by using frameworks. Frameworks are structures that organize thoughts and help identify key elements that influence a result. The video discusses the importance of reasoning from first principles, using examples of revenue and profit frameworks in a business context.
Vicki suggests two ways to acquire frameworks:
1-Create them yourself by distilling the essence of your knowledge into structures.
2-Find hidden frameworks on the internet by extracting the key elements from existing information and organizing it into frameworks.
She gives examples of frameworks like Ikigai (making money doing what you love) and Ethos, Pathos, and Logos (business storytelling). By building a library of frameworks and connecting them together, one can think fast on their feet and provide insightful responses to a variety of topics.

Thank you for this video! Very helpful.
When I was young I was inarticulate and "slow" or completely withdrawn in conversations. I spent my 20's reading books on communication, psychology, spirituality, dating, etc. I took rigorous notes because I was desperate to become a more full version of myself. Now in my 30's I'm proud to say when I'm in conversation with people my mind is very open and active.
I didn't have the terminology of "frameworks" but this video well demonstrates what I feel is going on inside my head. I love listening to people and watching the various internal frameworks link together and create connections. After years of this kind of study and practice it has become very strong and now almost intuitional, when I listen to people my mind delivers thoughts from these frameworks so quickly at times it's overwhelming but in a grandeur way like driving through a breath-taking mountain scape or something.
Anyway thank you for putting language to this and for providing the examples. I subscribed and will listen to more of your voicings
What book(s) or practice gave you a real break-through in communication? Im 22 and stuck in the situation you mentioned
it depends on the topic. People can be fluent in some areas and then struggle or completely avoid any other topics in order to look good all the time. Even the most fluent fast thinkers can struggle speaking if they don't know what are they talking about or have limited knowledge and experience. Problem is when people have knowledge and experience but still struggle talking about what they want to say. This is usually because they struggle speaking on other topics and carried the assumption that they are bad at talking about anything.
Love this point. Confidence is an important factor that doesn’t come automatically with knowledge and experience
It’s high IQ. Applying the scientific method, the fundamentals of logic etc. there’s a reason behind everything. also, make and female brains are inverted, eg content information first vs feelings context how you said it
Then you have people who can talk a big game regardless of if they know the subject or not (looking at many sales oriented people).
I used to struggle finding things to say when I was younger and when I started working in NYC in my early 20s I would be constantly pressed to have an answer for something, I don’t know exactly what happened but I started getting good at talking about things on the fly, after watching this video this is exactly what happened, you just understand the general idea or the essence of something and talk / evolve off of this. Not being able to find the words for something was when I was trying to get a specific answer
You've seen and experienced so much more. Kids know very little
A way of thinking to come out of the details and bring it back to the "bigger" picture or hopefully first principles!

why u do this?
Here is a simple framework you can use to think fast before you speak:
Identify your goal: What do you want to accomplish through your communication?
Consider your audience: Who are you speaking to and what do they need or want to know?
Gather information: What information do you need to present in order to achieve your goal and meet the needs of your audience?
Organize your thoughts: How can you structure your information in a way that is clear and logical?
Practice: If possible, practice what you will say in advance to help you feel more confident and prepared.
Using this framework can help you quickly and effectively organize your thoughts and communicate them effectively.

So we shouldn't watch the video now ??
Im obsessed with mental models and systems thinking. Would live to hear more. Once again love your content. Thank you 🙏
Yay for meeting another mental model & system thinking enthusiast!! Will do more :D thank you for watching!!
Say it again for the ones in the back 🗣
Do you recommend some other videos?
@@iniciantepadawan6542 have you heard of aqal model. From integral culture? That quadrant model is quite useful. Its like a back drop to sort all knowledge- so like interior/exterior and matches research paradigms to a space. It's a whole culture so you can get sucked in. Haha. But just look into the AQAL map. And imagine yourself where the quadrants meet. Your self as in where effect meets affect. It's a good model to sort models :)
@@patricksullivan1827 it’s a good one, but i don’t like it’s duality. it doesn’t have ‘spin’ because it’s always dual. whereas as my model ;) has I/We/All - no it. there is no real Other but the other is always apart of the I.
(Wilber starts to do this with Good True Beautiful, but fails by asserting 4 categories from those 3.)
Quick summ: Use relatable models from other places to break down a complex topic.
Concepts transfer over, even from different fields. Everything has a beginning, middle, and end (stories, how-to instructions, workout routines, etc.). An algorithm for a small computer program is comparable to a recipe (ingredients -> variables, steps -> lines). The first step to solve _________ problem is to first identify the problem. All this dot-connecting can go on and on.
Speaking of which, the ikigai model looks very useful in the biz world and it would not be a surprise to see it come up again, especially after watching this.
I'm glad that this framework thinking is addressed in this vid. Thank you for bringing it to light!
Following you because of the simple fact that you have explained a very complex way of communicating with just one word, framework. Powerful! Continue to make more of these.
Thank you for the support and will keep on making these! See you around the channel :)
She didn't actually
This video covers situations that occur in critical meetings. It’s for people like myself who can get easily flustered when the meeting is going in the wrong direction for the wrong reasons. It’s a great way to be prepared for a meeting and help redirect without becoming the negative stick in the mud.
I'm 35 years old and have been reading charlie munger, farnam street, James Clear and others like it for over a decade. If I'm being honest I often worry that the person across the table isn't considering enough variables if they oversimplify complex subjects when discussing strategy and/or how to move forward on a project, whatever the project may be. While I may be right sometimes, watching your video really helped me break what I consider to be some calcification in the way I view things. We cannot make perfect decisions, but constricting variables into frameworks as best as we can can at least help us initiate feedback loops in a more quantifiable way that will help us get better at getting s#!% done. Great video, thank you.
it's not about arriving at the right answer, it is about setting the person across the table back on their heels. if you are thinking about "variables" then frameworks aren't for you. try to think more in terms of FLY-SWATTERS. and aim for their forehead. hope that helps!
Thanks
This video taught me a lot. It could also be called, talk in frameworks.
I used to feel bad when I got confused in conversations. I saw some famous people just say the same stories over and over. So I decided to make my own answers that I can use anytime, anywhere. My best one is "I don’t know enough to have a good opinion."😂
My main problem is when I get excited I forget all about frameworks and just blurt out whatever I think.
Great video, congratulations! Actually, at school, many years ago, I was taught exactly what you say in this video: to speak clearly (or effectively), you have to think clearly. In order to do so, you need a theoretical framework to host your concepts. It could seem easy, but... It takes a lot of time and requires a lot of disciplined work. As far as I can see, not many people ever reach this level of maturity.
Hi Vicky, great content. This is definitely an youtube's hidden gem.
Keep up the good work and I'm sure the audience will build up
Really appreciate it Filipe!!
Wow. First video and I'm already liking it
Another, closely-related, topic is what I've always been able to do. When someone explains something to me, and I know nothing about the topic nor recognize any terminology, I create a framework from what they explain overall. E.g. "Something large has 7 components, the first one works with the fifth one, the third one is related to the first one the seventh one is very unique and explains all the others to greater detail." Then I ask them about (or I discover them later) each component and what the terminology means. Each time I get that information, I'm able to populate the framework as if hanging placards on hooks on the framework, right where they should go, but I don't have to go back and ask to have the whole thing re-explained.
When I understand something for the purpose of discussing it intelligently, I like to know the overall structure, and then the minute details. Once I know this, the rest falls into place, like a jar "full" of sand being filled further with water so that now it really is full.
This information is given in a $10K+ high-end course through the whole module from 4 modules total, so its equal to $2500 almost.
Of course it was more lengthy and in detail, but that doesn't mean it explained better than here.
Great work!
Thank you for the vote of confidence!!!
I collect models from across disciplines, and tweak them to suit my needs if they cover concepts of no relevance to my field or topic. I love visual models~ they really help me to unpack my thoughts on a topic, think it through in a different way etc
Care to share some with me, please?
With frameworks, one can build a structured conversation/discussion. Like to learn more about this approach.
I never knew there were other mental model enthusiasts. I thank RUclips for recommending me this video. Instantly subscribed. Can't wait to see through the rest of your content.
Hehe thank you algorithm for connecting us! Join the discord :)
I love this because I already do it, but called it “thought trees”. Basic concepts, branching off into different applications, branching off into examples and potential, branching off into statistics and sources.
Sounds like a mind map :)
yoo i love that! thank you!
I am so happy to find your channel. I've always known that systems and frameworks are an advantage in nearly every aspect of speaking or generating ideas for a project. As an individual who struggles with ADD, frameworks are essential. Thank you.
Glad this video worked for you!!!
As a consultant myself, I speak this way in everyday life because this pattern of thinking has become a muscle to me. In a social context though, I’ve got comments saying, “you speak like a consultant” which sometimes sound negative. If you want to practice the framework thinking and communication, it is so important to have the right people to engage with.
I do this all my life. I was born this way. Like Elon Musk, I am a type architect (INTP). So a framework= a basic concept. Ampere x Volt =Watt. Very logic Flow x pressure = Amount.
In Music, C minor= C major, which has stepped back a semitone in the middle (keeping it simple).
In a story you have epic/lyric and drama. Epic is the narrative/storyline. Drama=dialogues and lyric=describing things more poetically. So distill everything back to basic concepts.
You can fill in the details later. A human or animal is basically a tube: food comes in, goes out, adding oxygen, burn it slowly. Needs eyes and limbs to move itself to the food.
Well, you get my drift.
Thank you. I had not come across the idea of framework thinking before. Reading your examples of your own framework thinking from the perspective of another INTP made this new concept click. I'm now able to frame my perspective which makes organising my thinking so much easier.
E.g. Using your example of a story framework it was simple to create my own framework 'description' + 'new development description' = story
Up until now I've always struggled to stay on track and tell an interesting story because I wasn't building on a framework. I.e. I never knew where to begin and finish. Now I have a framework to use to be sure I got my point across. It's great because I can scale it up i.e. add more detail to the description and/or development or scale it down just describe the bare bones of the description and/development. Also I can easily make a story more spicy/interesting by adding this to the both the description and development description 😅
I'm feeling so much more powerful and in charge of what I am saying 🎉❤
Thank you to both the creator of this video and the INFP commenter!
Next. I just need to get faster and less clunky at applying this new knowledge and ability but I'm sure there is a system for that 😜😊
I've never thought of myself as a tube before!🤣🤣
Arquitecht is INTJ
Thanks!
This is great. I wish i could work with other people toward a social organization like this... A shared index of models with people i trust... What a dream !
Good to see you here!
This is my first time watching Vicky's video (I saw it on my YT homepage). In the first 8 seconds, I paused the video and immediately checked to timestamps to get a glimpse of the content. Then, moved to the comments to speculate if this video is worth watching.
A few moments later, I am writing this comment before even continuing to play the video because I want to say that Vicky is either a management consultant or a former consultant. To validate this hypothesis, I inspected her YT channel and instantly I saw her featured video on "Why I quit management consulting" which confirmed my assumption.
The end. I just want to practice story-telling and actually watch videos lately about being articulate in speaking. Now let me continue to watch the video. hahah
Finished watching the video. Key takeaways:
-Build a framework inventory. I usually have notes for frameworks that I deduce from books and courses but never organize them into a single file.
-Create a story inventory. I got this idea from the first key takeaway. In fact, I'm adding my first story above into the story vault.
This totally blew my mind. I think I've always been one to seek frameworks so I can organize my messy thoughts, but didn't know it. This video made that way of thinking more tangible so I now know exactly what I'm looking for. Great explanation and examples!
Glad you liked this and so glad it's made the idea more tangible! Keep me posted on how you go!
What example? She didn't explain how to make your own
@VickyZhaoBEEAMP why did you assent that you gave an example for making your own framework when you didn't? Can you now take responsibility and give an actual example?

Thanks for putting this out elegantly. I work in assurance and consulting for almost a decade now and find the framework-way-of-thinking very useful and impactful to my career.
This is what is often taught in universities. They are often called paradigms, structures or frameworks. That’s why we have certain general education class requirements in the first few years. The theory is that we can use a variety of different paradigms or lenses to interpret and discuss fact patterns in different topics, genres or practice areas. The difficulty with this kind of thought process is that it does not necessarily account for the creativity needed to interpret nuanced fact patterns and solve unique problems. Like Bruce Lee said-be like water. It can flow or it can crash. It fits any mold necessary. ~ It’s worth noting that Elon musk and other scientific minds tend to like this way of thinking because it is orderly and logical. But arts and the humanities might require more creativity.

@@CFthorinlol, how so? The statement is biologically correct. Hormones and their interactions with the brain influence brain and body development (keyword) from the womb to the tomb. Brains are not static.
Love Ikigai. I believe in you!
Correct me if I'm wrong. So in plan language, frameworks are like guidance for thinking , problem solving or decision making. They are mental models, which is a representation or explanation of how something works. Frameworks are telling us what are the essentials structure, the rest are just details.
Close, I think frameworks get us a few steps closer to how humans process information. Information Processing Model suggests cognitive function is formulaic. By adhering to a framework, you are aligning your tendencies to how
our brains are wired. An observational gap between those who apparently know exactly what to say and those who cant seem go articulate I believe stems from the general perception vs reality dissonance.
For years I was looking for channel like this so that happy I finally found you!

Hmm, this is interesting. I've been struggling with speech and general cognitive organization recently. It feels that I know so much, but I'm able to reproduce so little. I knew frameworks existed, but I never really paid attention to them - I would just assume that my mind would do it on its own. You've pointed out that it's not an automatic process - we've got to deliberately organize our thoughts and ideas (at least to start off).

I already did this but didn't really have a name for it because I assumed everybody did. I created my own way of approaching people and so far it hasn't failed me. I always just connected topics in school to applications in real life and it was always easy. i never knew frameworks had names though. thank you for the video
How do you make your own framework? She didn't explain that part
Frameworks and paradigms are fine and useful for keeping conversations focused on the situation at hand, but thinking conceptually and from first principles is more important. Sometimes frameworks and paradigms trap people in ineffective focuses.

Thank you from a 48 ages woman from vietnam. Sorry for my bad english. Just want to express that what you say are exactly what i've self questioned long before. Since i"m kind of loosing/forgeting my point when i am among talking with others.
Aww thank you for the message and for saying so. It’s only normal since we don’t start with those frameworks. Good luck and let me know how it goes!
Thank you. I've been doing this myself for a few years now, but I called it a "mosaic". It's a bit like unsupervised learning, where I detach myself from the information/ideas, identify patterns, connections, commonalities if there are. Slowly but surely, you have a tapestry of things. The bad/irrelevant ideas erode with time, leaving only the dense, crystalized scaffolding of the framework visible. There are many layers to this. "the only thing I know for certain is that I know nothing."
Yes to all this. So glad to meet you through these videos. Thank you for watching and sharing!!
Whenever you see such words as "tapestry, scaffolding" just know that, that is a chatgpt robot.....
This is how I have thought for as long as I can remember. I also find that creating frameworks to organise my frameworks can be helpful. It’s not a silver bullet to always knowing what to say (unless you always say something related to the most surface-level frameworks), but it can be very helpful. I do like that principle of just starting at the surface when someone asks a question. They may be missing something that seems obvious to you if you think in frameworks. If they think it’s obvious too, then you can use it to establish common ground and get on the same page.
I solve this by creating a hierarchical framework in which I store nuances as children of the more basic frameworks. I find that the equations that describe natural processes tend to follow this structure naturally. Of course, they usually lack nuance, but there’s almost always a more nuanced equation at a deeper level.
Hey great topic! I think most of us use frameworks due to different reasons: work, study... But the ones who develop more are curious people, and for a simple reason: we like to learn and distil the essence of topics. You then find frameworks, simplified models or abstractions of very different topics. If you study engineering and other applied science, you may find yourself equipped with usual frameworks and models of systems, and even better, how to create new ones. Anyway, a great topic, good to explore further. Please keep sharing your thoughts, or if you want to debate about it, let's do it!

Absolutely! Articulation and quick thinking are skills anyone can develop with practice. I used to struggle with expressing my ideas clearly, especially in high-pressure situations.
Thinking from first principles is such a game-changer! It's like having a mental toolkit ready for problem-solving. I recently explored this during the Sense of Humor Improvement Program by Habit10x, where they emphasized the importance of storytelling in communication. Remember, the more you practice these frameworks, the more natural your responses will become, making every conversation an opportunity to shine!

I’m a fourth year law student and before I started my mum would always say lawyers speak slow. Well now my boyfriend says I talk slow😂 it’s because I am constantly thinking about how to respond to something in the most accurate way possible. I think more soft skills in this space would be confidence when speaking by being exposed to both writing and people who speak about the same things.
I constantly Struggle with the same issue so you're not alone
Love this story - and there is inherent confidence in those who speak with intent and care. I'm thinking of making a video on this actually! Stay tuned!
My lord. Your video is totally eye-opening. I've just found out something about my mind that I was never aware of before. You rock!
Hi thank you for this! Would love if you make a video with more practical examples of using these frameworks. But tqsm for the sharing.
Hey Farrah! Yeeeees will do. Thinking of starting a series dedicated to frameworks :) Will keep you posted in the next few weeks!
@@VickyZhaoBEEAMP I second Farrah comment. I struggle so much with organizing knowledge that I desire to share. Bc of your video I am now doing a deep dive into creating frameworks. I would love any content you may have around how to build your own frameworks.
@@ericchavo9702 Hey Eric! Thanks for sharing this! Got it, I'll plan one, stay tuned!
Meanwhile, my fundamental frameworks playlist might help you speed up the deep dive :D ruclips.net/video/lcyHC9HLTzc/видео.html
I've been trying to stop talking too much since i was made aware that i did.Your channel randomly popped up today on my feed, i love your ideas, and your channel, new subby.
Hugs.
@@newmindsetdaily huggs right back and thank you.
Really love your ideas on storytelling. The frameworks for ethos, pathos and logos make a lot of sense for a place to start. Love how you shot and edited this video as well, it looks really great!
Thank you Matt!!! Editing takes so long though. Trying to find more efficient ways to get videos edited haha. Any tips?!
@@VickyZhaoBEEAMP Outsource! Tell them what you want and they'll do it much quicker! Finding a good contractor - this is a real question.
As a writer and orator, these words you and she are using are simply called WRITING. Because Americans are not taught how to Write Well as a System and a Structure, that is to say by Rules and Style, we don't learn how to Speak. And so on.
A channel about how to think and speak clearly.. I'm in!! I didn't know there were people who did this kind of content, and I'm happy RUclips has recommended this channel to me.
Discovered your video and really enjoyed your thoughts. Speaking or responding using a framework is super powerful!
Wow. Awesome ! Thank you.
Loved the video, Vicky. It was what I needed, and confirmed my own observations. It's great to have validation.
It’s high IQ. Applying the scientific method, the fundamentals of logic etc. there’s a reason behind everything. also, make and female brains are inverted, eg content information first vs feelings context how you said it
Absolutely LOVE THIS CONCEPT 💗😍 subscribed
I really love watching your videos because I find this helpful. Looking forward to watching more. Thank you for your contents.
Thank you Mario for watching and sharing this with me :D see you around in the comments section hehe 🙃
I always used this technique in exams and I think we all have used it unknowingly. When I have to write answers for a long question, it is impossible to mug up all the things. So what I do is to just remember the heading and subheading of each topic, like a flowchart, our teachers told us to do so. All now I have to do in exams is just expand those subheading or bullets or points or whatever you can call it. I always scored slightly higher than my friends using this technique🤓🤓, it also saved my time.
You should watch a video on how to get to the point.
I've been doing this all my life! I can't believe I've found a video on it
It's interesting seeing this described out. I've always felt like I've done this kind of thing since I was a child naturally. I think it was more that no one was able to break me of that habit that I was able to keep it and see good use of it. I wonder how much of this is not that we're not trained in it, but that we're trained out of it due to failed schooling models.
So very helpful…trying to change my thought process this helps alot
I'm so glad this helps! 😊
Thank you for producing this educational content. The internet needs this. Where would be a great place to begin learning more about Mental Models and Thinking Frameworks in an even more simplified form? Would you recommend any books? If so which ones?
There’s a gap in the market for this. I think Shane Parrish’s blog Farnam Street is a good resource, but I still want to make something more practical … let me know what you think of Shane’s work!
This content is always so clear and concise.
Thank you Vicky. Invaluable information about a framework for frameworks. I often struggle to juggle information between different high level topics. I’m going to give a this a shot and build myself a collection of structured frameworks to organize myself!
Yesss 🙌 please keep me posted on how you go with this Pratik!
How is it going?
You explain things in such an organized and logical way.
Definitely interested in delving deeply into frameworks.
When I was ~5 I realized there was very little I knew for certain.
I decided to develop a foundation of knowledge that I can trust, and build upon that reliable foundation.
Throughout my life I continued that effort. This provided a high degree of understanding and confidence about many subjects, philosophies and perspectives.
Frameworks is similar and equally universally applicable. Love the concept.
Your video popped up on my feed probably because it matches my interest and search. However, I was really drawn by your videos and I was quite impressed. Well done!
This was very helpful! This video made me feel very confident knowing that it was this simple! Love the insights !
Love this can share a dose of confidence with you :)
The most useful RUclips video in a long, long time. Thank you.
So basically, you'd need to get educated and acquired knowledge in the field of area you want to be good at... in order to talk smart. This is common sense, right?
You can be brilliant in your area of expertise and still not talk very smart. Trust me. I’ve seen it for many years. On the contrary, you can know very little and still have intelligent interactions when you learn to think in frameworks.
@beckyn9338 That's why I am here 🥲
Thank you so damn much, I hope i really use this and don't give up in the process
Keep me posted!!
Mind mapping is also effective! 😅
I just saw your first video love, and this is exactly what I need. Do you run a course for this?
It’s in the works! Would you be interested in trying the beta version?
Hey I’m loving your channel. Mental models are so helpful and they’re something I’m always looking to use more.
It was cool to hear about your story-telling marketing framework.
This is what I'm used to doing, it's nice to finally put a name to the process
Isn't this framework something that will built naturally when a person has a well understanding of a topic?
What if they talk or throw a question about the things that we do not understand, or prepare the framework yet?
That's what I thought too.
Intuition
The timing is perfect. I'm just going into a pay negotiation with one of my staff and the first principle of revenue= units *price just gave me the perfect framework to handle this awkward conversation.
This video links nicely with your 6 mental models of Charlie Munger video
Thank you for the context. I was distracted by all the hand movements.
Your content is very good. One thought I have to offer has to do with SYNTAX: When people talk about HOW THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY… is the correct syntax model, not -When people talk about HOW CAN I MAKE MORE MONEY? -- where you introduce a direct question instead of indirect one. It shows that you don’t understand the function of “HOW” in indirect questions. We never posit a direct question in this way; “How I can get to the bus station?” We posit the question this way: “How CAN I get to the bus station.” This is a direct question.
Thank you, this is very useful for RUclips as well. 🙌 I've been struggling (for years) with scripting & blogging. Because I have soooo much to say. Hope this will help me to finally script around the 10 min mark. Instead of 30+ min... 😅
Haha that struggle is too real!! Friends still tell me I need to get my videos down to even more bite sized packets haha.. 😂 I’m working on maybe 4-5 mins videos now
@@VickyZhaoBEEAMP Oh dear, sounds like it's part of the job... Haha. Thanks! 😅 I will try varying lengths next then. Maybe more mini tutorials, series AND longer lectures. I guess it also depends on audience expectations: Are they looking for a quick answer (to fix something small) or do they want to sit down to fully submerge (go more in depth)? Haha 🤔😇
Children are taught this in school when writing letters or topics but should be encouraged when engaging in conversation too.

How you explain things is incredible
Thank you
Your video’s just appeared in my recommendations. This was really brilliantly done. You are incredibly smart in a way that few of us are. I want to teach this to everyone I have to listen to. And I subscribed.
Thanks for sharing this. I just realised that this way of thinking isn’t naturally instilled for everyone, including me. I am an engineer, thus I always connect the dots into diagrams or mind-map in my mind. I shouldn’t take it for granted and think I’m born with this. It’s a skill that can be learned and trained. So anyone also can adopt it.
I love the way you put it. If we have it we don’t have to take it for granted, and if we’re not born with it, this is an invitation to explore and embody something new
Thank you for watching and sharing!!
