Liminal Thinking
by Dave Gray
View on GoodreadsLiminal comes from the Latin for threshold, the boundary between one state and another. Dave Gray's case is that your beliefs are models you construct rather than reality itself, and that you create change by understanding and reframing them, yours and other people's, without needing formal authority or credentials.
Core ideas
- Six principles: Beliefs are models, they're constructed, they create shared realities and blind spots, they protect themselves, and they're tied to identity.
- Nine practices: Among them are assuming you're not objective, emptying your cup, creating a safe space, asking questions, disrupting routines, acting as if and using stories.
- The short version: The method comes down to getting in touch with your ignorance, seeking understanding and then doing something different.
