I used to think that frameworks were these magical solutions that only thought leaders and creatives had access to.
Frameworks are simply the simplification of complex ideas. If the complex idea is a painting of a person, the framework is the stick figure drawing of that person. Once you have the framework down, you can begin to add more meat and bones to it by discussing or going over each component of the framework in more detail.
One of the biggest benefits of using frameworks is that they help you to digest complex ideas more easily. When you boil it down to the bare nuts and bolts, it becomes much easier to understand and build upon.
Starting with a framework creates a great starting point. And the best part is that there is no such thing as the one and only framework. They can evolve depending on the context and what the creator thinks is important.
When people create frameworks, they often start with a question or problem that they are trying to solve. This helps to determine which nuts and bolts to focus on first. It's like trying to figure out what's wrong with your car. There are so many components involved in a car. However, if you identify the problem that you are trying to solve , like why won’t my car start? or why is my car overheating? The question/problem can give you further focus when identifying which components to start with as the foundation of your framework.
As a chronic thinker and creator, I find this way of thinking to be incredibly helpful when navigating through topics that can seem all over the place.
In conclusion, starting with a framework is a great way to simplify complex ideas and make them more manageable. So, the next time you're struggling to understand a complex idea, try breaking it down into a framework. You might be surprised at how much easier it becomes.
Peace and blessings.
