Everything is a spectrum

We’re biased to think in binary terms:

– good or bad
– fast or slow
– kind or rude
– tidy or messy
– pretty or ugly

reality is not binary

reality is a spectrum

I started thinking of good or bad as 0 to 100 instead of 0 to 1

that has helped me understand things better and explain them much better

instead of saying ‘this is slow, I want it to be fast’, I started saying:

if slow was 0, and fast was 100, we’d probably be at a 10. I want us to be at a 20

Saying it this way changed the game.
