Critical Situationally Aware Thinking (CSAT)

CSAT is conversationally aware of foundational EIMs providing contextual interpretation basis in critical thinking discussion and debate. The skill implies an ability to dynamically mode shift conversations, concepts, texts, on the fly and in real time. It is not an easy skill to master but it can be accomplished. Elegant Reasonism is a standards based utility process employing technological framework supporting the ultimate which epistemologically seeks truth as a function of the unified Universe and which produced the first fully compliant Encapsulated Interpretative Model (EIM) closing to unification: The Emergence Model. Dynamically recognizing the EIM basis conversationally in real time is a skill that comes with time and experience and it requires critical thinking to accomplish. If your personality is prone to defend status quo positions or easily turns off listening or contemplation because the subject is something perceived to threaten your paradigm stack then you may have a great deal of work to do. Discerning technobabble and gobbledygook requires discriminating skills capable of wielding vast volumes of relevant information and the origins of that information. You must then be able to mode shift that information in order to assure affinity with the unified Universe.

Elegant Reasonism Demands Unified Universe Context

Stereotypical root cause analysis questions must be reframed in fully compliant context of the unified Universe in order to be relevant. We must remember that Empiricism is too an epistemology just as is Elegant Reasonism. The distinction between the two is the source of truth. What is relevant here is commission of Langer Epistemology Errors (LEEs) and their predilections for leading humans into LEEs Empiricism Traps. Often the standard depth of root cause analysis is five levels deep and often additional levels are necessary in order to discern fundamental abstraction basis being employed in a given discussion or investigation.

There are many things which science can not answer, for example discerning which theory is correct from multiple theories whose consequences are all exactly the same and which all agree with experiment. When we find ourselves in such circumstances we must take two actions. We must swim upstream epistemologically into philosophical realms to make sure that we are asking the correct questions, here that means relative to and respective of the unified Universe. Then we must strive to understand the EIM basis of the issues. Generally that means employing the utility process and framework in order to navigate the Process Decision Checkpoint Flowchart.

Teachers working to establish curricula based scenarios may leverage these various circumstances in the classroom to illuminate and illustrate these issues for students in a variety of ways. Physical sciences may, for example, present red or blue shifted spectrographic information and then illuminate the distinctions between how those would be interpreted relative to and respective of the various EIMs which might be employed. Economics students could be exposed to action potentials leading to Human Action. Students involved in Art Appreciation may be interested to understand the body of work presented by Susanne K Langer.

Those investigators interested in imposing standards should be warned that it is easy to get lost in standards structures such that goal and objective boundaries are exceeded for the intended purpose. Do not fall into analysis paralysis traps. Keep everything as simple as possible but do enough to satisfy any requirements being imposed by ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems standards.

Why It Matters

We are all oft to say that “truth matters” without ever questioning the source of that truth epistemologically. Very oftent what is meant by that statement is empirical truth, but then that never questions whether or not the critical situationally awareness thinking is compartmentalized within LEEs Empiricism Trap. Another factor is to assure ourselves that we are not being Blinded by Past Successes. Evidence chains illuminating and illustrating credible linkage end to end through all abstractions and paradigm constructs such that they mode shift into the unified Universe, no matter how restful the linkage may be, hold more weight than do empirical evidence which can not close to unification. Understanding the source of truth matters. Understanding whether or not that origin closes to unification matters. The integrity with which these various questions are asked also matters.

Brave New Insights

Insights from the precipice capable of perceiving and engaging the unified Universe are more powerful than any other because they reflect more directly actual reality. If you are making an argument but can not close your argument within the context of the unified Universe then you are vulnerable to those who can. It is just that simple. Many of these factors are discussed in the available presentations, white papers, and videos available through our network presence. Our caution is to be critically situationally aware in your thinking on yet another issue and it is that if those with whom you communicate are not familiar with the utility process and framework you used to develop your insights neither will you be able to justify those insights. Insights must be delivered in context of the process and framework used to justify them.

Traps, Errors, and Clues

There are many different types of traps, errors, and clues. Many we have already mentioned.

Langer Epistemology Errors (LEEs)

LEEs typically occur when we mistake abstractions for actual reality.

Shelby Errors

Shelby Errors typically occur when government believes it is a profit centered business, it is not. This is especially true in Constitutional Republics like the United States. Government’s role is to protect all of its citizenry not compartmentalize, constrain, or thwart innovation. It is too easy to obfuscate and confuse through regulation, policy, and citizens are encouraged to watch the actions on the ground to see if those officials who are not elected are in fact carrying out the will of the people and not some other agenda. Here in the United States the supreme law of the land is the Constitution of the United States.

LEEs Empiricsm Traps

Not until we realize the full implication that human physiology is within the domain of the unified Universe and that our Central Nervous System (CNS) automatically furnishes our brains with abstractions are we likely to begin understanding the inherent weakness of the epistemology of empiricism.  Consider the scenario where Encapsulated Interpretative Model (EIM) boundary’s hold the predominant status quo thinking modeling reality but that demographic also does not close to unification and few if any understand why that is the case. Then consider the depicted Dunning-Kruger Effect. Presume for a minute that you are considered a guru because you can ardently defend your flock of peers, but only within, for example, the M1 column enabling mode shifting. Consider the implications of being fully ensnared and otherwise mired within LEEs Empiricism Trap.

The problem and challenge with this scenario is that those individuals are blinded by past successes are convinced by those successes. They will exercise Six Sigma, oblivious to the implications and ramifications of application beyond EIM boundaries and the rigor necessary to drive down through analytical layers to ultimately arrive at a holistic and relevant sigma ratio. They will likely cite many of the ‘c’ metrics employed within the realm of the c’s, excepting of course “closure”. They stay very far away from that one and very often offer very elaborate rationalizations why that is not necessary.

The strategic issue presented by this scenario is that individuals plateaued on the right hand side of the Dunning-Kruger Effect, but stuck behind LEEs Gate on the Process Decision Checkpoint Flowchart (PDCF) erroneously believe. (innocently so), that they are the experts and have complete command of the entire tapestry. Because they have committed Langer Epistemology Errors they do not fathom their mistake. Consequently when those people employ the Baloney Detection Kit, they think you are the one holding the baloney not them. They will accuse you of being either on mount stupid or in the valley of despair. They may arrogantly dust off their hands, citing empirical evidence, never realizing the conceit of monolithic thinking relative to and respective of the proverbial road to reality. In short they do not yet understand the implications and ramifications of the nature of abstractions.

Walk A Mile In Their Shoes

Frequent visitors here will understand that the only escape from LEEs Empiricism Trap is Elegant Reasonism as holistically represented by this website. They will also have likely seen me say that the only defense against Elegant Reasonism is wielding it more effectively than your competition/adversary and that is a central point of In Unification’s Wake, part 05: Business Impact. It is why I so strongly encourage all leadership to wield this transformationally.

Never present Elegant Reasonism based insights absent cognition of the means by which they were developed and the rationale behind it.

Conversational critically situational aware thinking in real time application is holistically aware of enabling mode shifting. Individuals so skilled can instantly recognize systemic implications to a given investigation, its goals and objectives, as well as to the associated individuals and the organizations to which they represent. Global enterprise should be most interested in maximizing mode shifted values to its customer base and calculate stakeholder ROI accordingly. Because if they don’t do that they may just find their shareholder base holding their apathy, (or worse), accountable at their next meeting.

Concept Compression Issues

Concept compression issues are those which not enough time has elapsed which would otherwise allow for natural development of the concept. In the physical sciences the grand design spiral galaxy BX442, for example, is one such example because there has not been enough time since the EIM M1 context of the Big Bang for it to exist where in fact it does exist. The EIM M5 reconciles that issue because the age and size of the unified Universe are ample enough for it to have fully formed in the location where we find it. In fact the EIM M5 enables us to characterize the unified Universe Bang to Bang.

Executive Summary

Encapsulated Interpretative Model (EIM) boundaries make it near impossible to illuminate to illustration the path leading to the precipice where the unified Universe may be both perceived and engaged absent Elegant Reasonism. If there is a way, I don’t know what it might be. The historical problems are way too integrated to recognize, much less find effective communications in unification’s wake.

Unification demands the integration of everything real.

That includes philosophy and all its constituent domains, most especially science. The ability to understand the fine line of distinction between EIM Principled Laws and Laws of Nature while never crossing the line into commission of Langer Epistemology Errors represents a very high level of skill attainment. Being able to wield such skills conversationally requires dedication and perseverance. I can only strongly encourage individuals pursuing such objectives to wield those skills transformationally. Remember too that all of what you find on this website took two decades to develop. This did not happen overnight. Do not expect to walk into any bastion of institutionalized ardent defenders of M1, wave one of Ollivander’s wands around, and expect to convert those defenders. Paradigm shifts don’t work that way. The more entrenched those folks are the more likely they will have to traverse traditional stages of grief dealing and coping with the associated paradigm shifts regarding the investments they have made in their own educations. Sometimes science is a cruel master, but we must embrace what must be.
