«Remember that all models are wrong; the practical question is how wrong do they have to be to not be useful.» - Shane Parrish

This model teaches us that it’s much more important to pay attention to where you are going and not how fast you are moving

Clarifying your thinking and explaining the origins of your ideas. (Why do I think this? What exactly do I think?) Challenging assumptions. (How do I know this is true? What if I thought the opposite?) Looking for evidence. (How can I back this up? What are the sources?) Considering alternative perspectives. (What might others think? How do I know I am correct?) Examining consequences and implications. (What if I am wrong? What are the consequences if I am?) Questioning the original questions. (Why did I think that? Was I correct? What conclusions can I draw from the reasoning process?)

Sometimes it’s good to start at the beginning, but it can be more useful to start at the end.
