Quote by Karl Weick
Your beliefs are cause maps that you impose on the world, after which you 'see' what you have already imposed.
Summary
This quote suggests that our beliefs shape our perception of the world. It implies that our preconceived notions act as filters, influencing how we interpret and interact with our surroundings. The idea is that we often impose our own mental maps or frameworks onto reality, and then selectively perceive evidence that aligns with those beliefs. In other words, our beliefs influence what we "see" in the world, creating a subjective reality that may differ from objective truth.
