Think From Another Angle

Q: How do I know the Think From Another Angle output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Names and breaks the current frame; Applies genuinely distinct lenses (not restatements); Each reframe changes what the problem is and reveals something; Identifies the single most useful reframe.

Get unstuck on a problem by deliberately re-framing it through a different lens — a child's, an outsider's, another industry's, the reverse, the extreme. Use when asked I'm stuck on this, look at this differently, reframe this problem, or how else could I think about this. Produces the same problem re-cast through several deliberately different frames (each of which changes what the problem even is), what each reframe reveals, and the most useful new angle to pursue — because being stuck is usually a framing problem, not an effort problem.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“I'm stuck on this problem — help me see it differently.”“Reframe how I'm thinking about my career rut.”“How else could I look at this conflict?”“I keep hitting a wall on this — different angle?”“Recast this problem for me.”

What to give it

▸The problem — what you're stuck on

▸How you're currently framing it — so we can break that frame

▸What you've tried — so we don't reframe into a dead end

▸What "unstuck" looks like — the outcome you want

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓Names and breaks the current frame

✓Applies genuinely distinct lenses (not restatements)

✓Each reframe changes what the problem is and reveals something

✓Identifies the single most useful reframe

✓Points to a concrete next move

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Restating the problem** in new words (not reframing).

**Reframes that all say the same thing.**

**Clever angles with no insight** attached.

**No pick and no next move** — leaving the person still stuck.
