Change the alleyway view?

Someone saw a stereotypically boring and dirty alleyway and had a thought. What if this alleyway could become a beautiful thoroughfare?

When you change what you see, what you see changes.

Been saying this for years. Now there’s a new BFO…

The original BFO centered on the physical example of looking at flowers and never seeing their shadows. But a simple refocus and our gaze suddenly sees their shadows everywhere, instead of their colorful blooms.

The new insight (BFO), however, just came to me. Mentally changing what we see in the future.

For example, moving from something we never think about (see) to what we always think about (see) in the future.

It’s simply having a clear, concise, and compelling vision of the future that we rarely think about (see) because it’s impossible.

Changing what we see changes what we see.

When we consistently see impossible things, we can program ourselves to continuously move toward impossible.

In the past we were never able to move toward impossible because we never thought about (saw) it.
