I tend to prefer to frame it slightly differently as "given this same situation again in the future, how do i ensure that the outcome ends up favorably for me instead?" or "how do i enure that i don't encounter such situations in the future?"
The root cause to me is only useful in that it might provide insight in how to improve my life going forward.
- sitkack 7y agoI think included in that framework is also, "thing over which I have the most control or could be controlled". We don't say the root cause is that time flows forward. Or that gravity can't be stopped or shielded. Or that I can't directly copy my ideas into your head w/o playing out a story. Direct teleportation of knowledge, feelings, thoughts, arguments and truths. Root causes are like the free variables. The universe is the fixed.
