Check this out.
Can you find a horse in this picture of a
frog? Really. I’m not kidding you. There is a horse hidden in the image. You just need to look hard.
If you finally see the horse or has given up looking
for it, scroll down.

This is probably my most favorite optical illusion image. To see the horse, you need to look at the picture
from a different perspective:
Pretty cool, right?
We can derive a simple but valuable lesson from this:
it pays to look at things through a different perspective.
In solving problems, it is important to think out of the box. The solution to a problem might be derived by looking at it differently. See the problem from a different perspective to find the “horse.”

Also, looking at a different perspective also helps
in settling any disagreements. Now, I
acknowledge and believe that there are indeed such things as objective and absolute
truths, in which there is only one way of looking at the matter. At these particular instances, it is
necessary to resolutely stand firm by the objective truth against the
opposition. But, in life, there are also
many times where we will encounter subjective truths – a matter that can be
look upon from many perspectives. You
might see it as a “frog” and another sees it as a “horse”, and you are both
correct as far as the respective context or perspective that you are looking at the
matter from is concerned. Hence, if we find our
emotions being roused to obnoxiously argue with someone that sees it as a “horse”
since we see it as a “frog”, then it is wise to take a pause first. And carefully think. Let us be discerning and try to understand
where the different view is coming from.
Let us put ourselves in their shoes, and try to look at it from their
point of view. By understanding that
there are several ways to look at it, the opposing sides could have a proper
and effective discourse and together reach a higher vantage point to see the whole
picture.
