Same Tree, Different Eyes: The Psychology of Perspective

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE • HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY Same Tree, Different Eyes Why we see the world differently—and how perspective shapes our decisions, relationships and lives. We do not always see things exactly as they are. We often see them through the lens of who we are. Imagine a large, beautiful tree standing beside a quiet road.

A carpenter might see the possibility of creating a table or a chair. A woodworker might think about timber. A businessperson might calculate its commercial value.
