“You’ve started thinking backward, not even touching the data until you know the question, the destination. Different”
Philip Mudd, The HEAD Game: High-Efficiency Analytic Decision Making and the Art of Solving Complex Problems Quickly

“In analytic circles, assuming that the entity or individual you are assessing might think or act as you would is known as mirror-imaging, and it is among the most common mistakes you will see in analysis.”
Philip Mudd, The HEAD Game: High-Efficiency Analytic Decision Making and the Art of Solving Complex Problems Quickly

“Anyone who’s ever been in a romantic relationship knows how hard it is to understand a partner’s decision-making, day in and day out. There is no couple that doesn’t compromise, at some level, because we’re all different. We have different goals, moods, interests, and personalities. When we’re in a work environment, we seem to forget this.”
