Metaphorical Thinking
A mental model that helps interpret the world by making connections between different concepts and experiences through speech or writing.
Metaphorical thinking is a mental model that encourages you to find symbolic relationships in different experiences or concepts. This kind of thinking is especially valuable in communicating complex or abstract ideas. For example, if you're trying to explain the concept of 'time', you could say it's like a river that's always moving forward, where the water never stops or moves backward.
