About this episode

Mike Robbins discusses the challenges of either/or thinking and the importance of recognizing that multiple perspectives can coexist.

Lately, I've been noticing how easy it is to get pulled into either/or thinking, especially with everything happening in our lives, our businesses, and in the world. We can feel like we have to choose one perspective, one idea, or one side over another. On this episode, I talk about the importance of remembering that multiple things can be true at the same time, why this can be challenging, and how allowing for more nuance and complexity can help us stay grounded, connected, and even more effective with ourselves and others.
