A Simple Yet Powerful Perspective on Life
Leveraging a logical observation, thinking, & analysis model

Background and Context
I gained essential insights from Robert Dilts’ books, such as Strategies for Genius, Visionary Leadership Skills, Alpha Leadership, and Sleight of Mouth. Dilt’s practical and visionary leadership ideas made me think differently.
I used his logical model as an effective thinking tool and turned it into a habit in my interactions and engagements in my personal and professional life.
My purpose in this short piece is to introduce and highlight the logical model, which helped me look at the situations, people, and events in a structured way as an educative tool.
This structured view can improve the quality of our observations, thinking, and analyzing skills, especially in entrepreneurial ventures. Let me share the structure of the model and how the concepts map to the questions that we may ask to gain insights.

Synopsis of the Logical Perspective Model
The logical perspective model is based on six hierarchical concepts covering the significant aspects of our being and existence in this world.
1. Environment
At the bottom level, the framework starts with the environment.
This is our external context.
This step maps to where and when questions.
2. Behaviour
The second level relates to our behaviour.
In this level, we demonstrate specific behavioral actions and take steps to respond to our environment.
This step maps to what question.
3. Capabilities
The third level relates to our capabilities.
This level includes our vision, strategies, mental maps, life plans. Our capabilities are formed by our behaviour and reflected in our environment.
This step maps to how question.
4. Belief & Values
Belief and values are the drivers of our capabilities. They can support or inhibit our capabilities.
This step maps to why question.
5. Identity
The identity concept relates to how we see ourselves in our environment with regard to our capabilities, belief, and values.
This step maps to who question.
6. Beyond Identity
This highest level goes beyond ourselves and relates to larger systems such as the universe. This concept is related to our purpose and spirituality.
This step maps to for whom & for what questions.

Conclusions
By using this powerful model in our personal and professional life, we can make better sense of people, processes, events, and situations.
This model can be resembled to a powerful glass clarifying obscure objects.
