Perspective Razor

This Hub introduces the Perspective Razor, a mental model for navigating complex realities. It provides a framework for actively seeking and integrating diverse viewpoints, emphasizing that our understanding of truth is always shaped by the scale and tools of our observation.

— Ben Linford, Founder, Shared Sapience (2025)

Core Concepts:

• Epistemic Humility: Assuming our current view is partial, not absolute, to avoid premature certainty.
• Holistic Integration: Actively seeking diverse viewpoints to construct a more complete picture of reality.
• Scale Awareness: Recognizing that what is true at one scale may not be true at another.
