How to use Second Mind

Psychological research shows that our brains rely on cognitive shortcuts when stressed. Looking at a challenge through structured, opposing lenses (Rational logic vs. Long-term projection, Cautious risk analysis vs. Opportunistic expansion) forces your brain to break free of binary choices and identify creative third options.
