Inversion: Charlie Munger on Working Backwards to Solve Problems (Mental Model)

Inversion is an interesting way to relook a problem by turning it upside down. Inversion is immensely helpful when you are stuck and there’s no way to move forward. Inversion forces you look at a difficult problem backwards, or from a completely new perspective.

For example, rather than asking, what you should do to be happy, you should ask what you should do to avoid being unhappy. This makes you look at this problem backwards.
