When you’re stuck on a decision, try the Three-Part Mind Trick. Break the problem into three pieces: what it is, what it isn’t, and the space between. Most people only think about the first part, but the real clarity comes from the tension between the two sides.
Now picture that structure as a triangle — one side for the idea, one for its opposite, and the connecting edge for the new insight. When you mentally “turn the triangle over,” you activate deeper subconscious systems that naturally start solving the problem for you.
It works because holding two opposing ideas creates a tiny bit of cognitive dissonance — just enough for your brain to pay attention and reorganize the puzzle. Try it once or twice, and you’ll feel the shift: your mind loosens, and the insight often shows up on its own.
