First principles · IN SHORT
Strip a plan back to evidence, hard constraints and inherited conventions. The skill turns eight to twelve assumptions into testable claims and identifies which risks to examine first.
Your brief
I want to charge the same as a competitor, but I do not know whether they sell at that price.
Possible draft
The advertised price is an observation; willingness of your customers to pay it remains an assumption. Examine previous purchases and a bounded offer before building the whole workshop.
01 / THE FOUNDATION
A precise goal, likelihood and impact table, two to four primary risks and a redesigned plan.
02 / SEE HOW IT WORKS
I want to charge the same as a competitor, but I do not know whether they sell at that price.
The advertised price is an observation; willingness of your customers to pay it remains an assumption. Examine previous purchases and a bounded offer before building the whole workshop.
This example shows the approach. It is not a client result or a guarantee of a particular outcome.
03 / GET STARTED
Distinguish arithmetic facts, obligations and choices being treated as fixed truths.
Write eight to twelve falsifiable assumptions and score likelihood, impact and evidence separately.
Choose a low-cost test for each primary risk and explain how the plan could change.
04 / MAKE IT YOURS
Take the instructions, add your own context and review the draft. You stay in control.
