Thursday’s essay, “Maybe your maps need adjustment,” is an essay that focuses on perception. In the essay I discuss the five elements that you need to know about maps versus territories. Each one is important in helping you come at the world in a more straightforward, forthright, and unambiguous manner.

Thursday's And Then Some Essay preview
Maybe your maps need adjustment
by Richard L. Weaver II
Excerpt:
What this means for you is that your perception of reality is not reality itself, but it is your own version of it — your “maps.” Your maps are distorted because you jump to conclusions with little or no evidence, ignore parts of the territory, see only what you want to see, see things as black and white rather than in shades of gray, and apply labels to people and situations and then refuse to see beyond the labels. How do I know you do these things? Because you’re human, and all people do it.
