You asserted it, but what makes your metaphor better? What results have you gotten out of it that everyone can learn from?

- notacoward 7y agoIt's not really about my metaphor being better, though I apply this approach to problem-solving just about every day and it has played a part in a pretty successful career. It's not even about any particular one metaphor being better. The real point is that finding a metaphor/slogan/mnemonic that can be applied usefully to a particular situation is a perilous exercise. OODA is just an example of trying too hard to "borrow success" from a completely different kind of endeavor. It sounds smart at first, but doesn't hold up to serious scrutiny.
