Breadth Of Perspective

Breadth of Perspective

Man is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness from which he emerges

and the infinity in which he is engulfed.

Blaise Pascal

Perspective is the angle you see yourself and life from. It is also the viewing height.

The higher the perspective, the clearer the view but the less detail.

Narrow perspective results in:

• Lack of context
• Single paradigm
• Self-referencing
• Minimal understanding
• Small Choices
• Reactions

We must ask ourselves challenging questions, introduce paradoxes, make subtle distinctions, and create stimulating environments that expand our thinking.

We can use the Perceptual Positions to look at others perspectives in our interactions.
