Make sense not dollars

Maslow July 18th

Sense Making is an extremely important cognitive skill as it allows people to comprehend the world around them in a manner that makes sense to them, while also being able to relay the world to others in a way that they can comprehend. Being able to integrate different pieces of information across a broad variety of subjects while then contextualising that integrated information piece in a manner that succinctly relays info to others is valuable. Not only this but being able to predict and sense patterns thus being able to draw conclusions based on available information, makes it possible for the sense maker as it were to understand information from a variety of viewpoints.

Where has sense-making been useful in your life? How was it used? Was the application of it utilised to its fullest potential?

In conversation, the skill of sense-making is extremely important to keep communication brief and efficient. When do you feel like your sense-making impacted how you were able to get yourself across to others?

What tips would you have for somebody, so that they would be able to strengthen their sense-making ability do you incorporate this advice in your own life, if not why, and if yes how effective is it?

When I have enough relevant information,  I have learned that it's fine to keep things short and sweet.

First of all,  my tips would probably be able to reach certain people because everyone is different when it comes to making sense of information.   For one thing, everyone is on a different path with distinct, motives, beliefs, and biases.
