If you can’t figure it out, change the zoom. Some problems need closer, some need farther.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

Being stuck is often a framing problem rather than an intelligence problem. Some things stay confusing until you get right up close and look at one line, one step, one day. Others only make sense from much further out, where the shape of the whole week becomes visible. Staring harder from the same distance is the one move that reliably fails.

When you hit a wall this week, change distance before you change effort. Take the problem down to a single step, or take the week up to a calendar view. Ask what this looks like in a month, or what the very next action actually is.
