Synopsis

“Take away paradox from the thinker and you have a professor.” ~Søren KierkegaardThis Habits 2 Goals episode is FREE for ALL subscribers. In 2014 I wrote It’s Both! Your (Habitual) Dichotomous Thinking is Killing You.That’s right, “Killing You!”I went a bit deeper on this concept in The Pressure Paradox™ (2015).It’s worth revisiting as the idea is essential to critical thinking and, interestingly enough, peace of mind. A sure sign of a mature mind is one that can hold two opposing ideas together, at the same time (most of the time).The reason we’re revisiting the concept is that I’m noticing it’s percolating elsewhere.Let’s begin with Matthew McConaughey’s latest book (Sept 2023) Just Because. Just Because is an illustrated kid’s book designed to teach children many life lessons.In so doing, it fosters “Both” thinking.” Few lessons may be more important to understand for children.Straight from McConaughey’s book, examples on Amazon.com.“Just because they don’t hear you, doesn’t mean you don’t have a voice.”“
