How Think Counter-Intuitively
“Do the opposite of what you logically think you should do in many cases.” (Anonymous)
Do you want better health and more energy?
Would you like higher quality relationships?
Are you interested in creating a sustainable business?
These are all things that come about naturowhen we start to think from a counter-intuitive or counter-logical perspective.
What do I mean by this?
This fundamentally means that we take another perspective on the decision options that we must face.
Instead of going with the logical solution all the time, we must be more attuned to our intuition.
Let’s go through a number of examples:
Losing Weight
The logical thing to do to lose weight for most people is to follow a fad diet that results in yo-yo dieting.
The counter-logical thing to do would be to fundamentally make a shift in your lifestyle — from what you eat to how you sleep.
Creating A Business
The logical thing to do for most who want to start a business is to place making money as the top priority above all else.
By doing this, the reputation of the business collapses and all you are left with is failure.
