“What am I not doing?” is a good question to ask when you’re trying to do things and struggle to get results simultaneously. It’s also a good question to ask when you want to discover other options. Despite creating discomfort, inverting the approach provides insights and reveals what you haven’t been looking at.
It’s a question to ask yourself at all times, even when things go well, and also when you get ambiguous feedback about what you’re trying to achieve.
