Inversion Principle
Instead of asking how to achieve something, turn the question around: what would make things worse? Then avoid that.
Want to be happier? Try asking what would make you miserable instead: neglecting your health, isolating yourself, spending time with people you dislike. Avoiding these won’t guarantee happiness, but it’s a good start.
“How do I become a good manager?” is hard to answer. “What did my worst manager do?” is easier: took the credit, changed priorities every week, never said what they expected of me.
It is often easier to see what makes things worse than what makes them better. Start there.
