Why are you always thoughtless?

When you think about a problem, do you always think incompletely and one-sidedly?

In fact, it is not easy to consider the problem comprehensively. First, we usually prefer vivid things and tend to ignore some abstract things.

Second, because of prejudice, once people form their own views on a certain issue, they will continue to prove their views and turn a blind eye to different views and arguments.

The third reason is that there are some blind spots in my thinking due to the limitations of my existing cognition and experience. Sometimes I don't know what I don't know about these blind spots, so it's hard to think about them.

Then how can we eliminate blind spots and consider them more comprehensively?

Using matrix method, just like a table, we can decompose and combine problems through different dimensions. How to use it?

1, let's first decompose the problem into as many dimensions as possible. For example, making cakes, single-layer or multi-layer, what flavor to make, what shape to make, and so on.

2. For each dimension, find out different subdivision representations such as positive and negative, and form a matrix. For example, does the cake taste like milk, chocolate or other flavors?

3. Try to make various combinations according to the performance values of different dimensions. For example, you can combine the shape and taste of a cake in different ways.

After the above three steps, you can get many combinations, and you will be very considerate.
