WRAP

Chip and Dan Heath

You want a life choice you will still respect in five years. The problem is the gut is loud and the options are two. Widen, reality-test, attain distance, prepare to be wrong. Decide from the gut and you will own a sitting you did not take. Take the distance and the choice can bear the years.

In one line

A life choice: Widen, Reality-test, Attain distance, Prepare to be wrong. From the gut is a sitting without the distance.

Use this on a life choice. It answers: How do you decide?

How this talks to the others

Leads into
GROW
GROW is the sitting. WRAP is the life choice that sitting is inside.
Pushes against
OODA
WRAP widens the frame. OODA tightens the loop. They disagree about whether you have time to widen.
