Finally, this chapter discusses, in details, of why we need lateral thinking. Indeed, I kind of resonate with many parts of what’s been discussed in the book. For example, at first when it talks about how communication works like a sender and a receiver passing codes. This is normally what happens to us when we’re trying to recall something ourselves or remind others of something which happens on a daily basis. Also, the part where it says that our memory works like pouring water, in which some create the contours of the surface and then some leave marks and create sequences. This reminds me of what I read from some psychology books in which there’s the concept of confirmation bias. We usually don’t have a full picture of what really happened, in fact in most cases are just some blurry overall pictures. When someone talks about something that seems that align with the big picture, we immediately confirm with them and believe that it’s indeed what’s happened. Using the metaphors from book, this is like someone steps into the water hole that we create beforehand in our memory system. Also, I agree with the idea of how important restrcuturing is, in which when we process information, even though we could be correct at every stage but we still need to restructure before proceeding. Indeed, when I was reading this piece myself, I did a lot of back and forth reading/restructuring although I felt like I understood every single piece of it. Overall, I find this piece of reading very informative. It’s a little bit abstract, to be honest, and I don’t think I would fully comprehend it without the helps of the diagrams it provided.
