Dimensional thinking and doing

What is important, valuable and relevant for you, your organisation or your enterprise?

  • What are the patterns that arise from the interests we have?
  • What are the principles we live by from the values we hold?
  • What are the human-based processes we create from the goals we have?

Dimensional thinking and doing help us navigate reality by showing us how dimensions interact and create the context we live in.

  • The advantage of thinking in dimensions is that it does not pin us down to one fixed value. It highlights that quite a few exist before and after the value we are experiencing now. It allows us to improve.
  • The second advantage is that dimensions allow much more connections between points on the dimensions, creating a more prosporous world for us.
  • Thirdly. The former two create many more possibilities to find intersections between people's positions.

Bayes Theorem

.

Why does the experience of the train passengers never match the punctuality statistics of the train company? Because we update our knowledge about the world around us, not in 'new-formed chunks' which can be counted statistically, but in a Bayesian way, updating existing knowledge.

Bayes' theorem is a fundamental result in probability theory that describes the relationship between prior and posterior probabilities. Probability science would lead us far away from this wiki's core intent. So instead, we limit ourselves to Bayesian statistics because it best describes how we statistically think as humans.
