"What I told you was true, from a certain point of view." 🧘
This is Obi-Wan Kenobi's iconic line to justify why he told Luke that Darth Vader had killed his father, even though Vader is his father. It's manipulation, yes, but it's also an incredible lesson in mindset!
In life, this phrase reveals two essential things:
Your Truth Is Not Universal: What is true for you (your experience, your fear, your way of doing business) is not necessarily true for others (your clients, your partners).
Mindset Is Just an Angle: Being able to change your perspective is the first step to success. If your strategy isn't working, it might be because you haven't yet found the angle (the perspective) that will make it true and effective. The Jedi call this flexibility.
So, what perspective is holding you back right now?
