This is cool question.
When I talk to people, few things get trigger:
1) what isn’t being said?
2) what am I missing? what else should I know first?
3) is this true? why?
4) how else can I look at this?
Using a metaphor, my brain is a gatekeeper between information coming in + my jello headquarters. It needs to check if everything is true, if anything is missing, nonverbal behaviour before it lets anything in.
After it does, jello HQ starts brainstorming different ways to view what has been said before making a decision.
^ All this is recent. I went through something intense. Before that, brain drove on a road of “why’s” drew conclusions based on what is said without further digging.
Sounds like brain was missing: side view mirrors + rear view mirrors in car.
Mirrors = to check assumptions + see what I can’t see + scrounging for more info before drawing conclusions (making a turn on the road).
