At every turn, I notice how big a role reversal (eng. [[Knowledge/Mental models/Inversion]]) plays, and the longer I use it, the more I understand why people like [[Knowledge/People/Warren Buffet]] value it so much.

## The world stands on its head
|
|
One gets the impression that many things in the world are literally reversed.
|
|
For example:
|
|
- Productivity has a lot to do with boredom and relaxation
|
|
- Happiness is a matter of decision and a state of being rather than a state to strive for
|
|
- often the obstacle to getting something is the desire to have it
|
|
- Fully enjoying what we have requires that we accept that we may lose it
|
|
|
|
## I act 'in reverse'
|
|
Very often my example shows how effective it is to reverse and even act totally opposite to most or our natural reactions.
|
|
|
|
## Intentional reversal
|
|
Currently, when making decisions intentionally, I think about the results I can achieve if I behave exactly the opposite. Likewise, when solving problems, I consciously reverse my assumptions to be able to see a different [[Knowledge/Dictionary/Perspective]] and thus often hit upon a solution that is not apparent at first glance. |
