You are right and unpersuasive, which pays exactly the same as being wrong.

The Anti-Law of FogMany options, no daylight.

Right of the triangle · Cogent

A crystal that ends in a single point — the argument that comes to a tip.

I come to the point, and the point holds.

How to move over

  1. 1Name it without shame: today you were standing on unconvincing.
  2. 2Say the law once — The Law of Possibility — and bow to it. That bow is obeisance.
  3. 3Do one small thing only cogent would do, inside the next hour.
  4. 4Put on the robe: carry Rock Crystal Quartz for the rest of the day as the sign you switched sides.

The switch of the whole day

  • Say the situation in one clear sentence.
  • Name the one door that is actually open.
  • Walk through it before the fog returns.
