Original practice · Optional exercise · Decisions with a return path
Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.
- Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A colour choice receives more debate than a major navigation problem.
- Match the discussion time to the actual consequence.
- Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
- Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
