This isn’t a trick you deploy once and forget. It’s a practice: ask a sharper question, collect what matters, model it honestly, decide out loud. Tools will change. Jargon will evolve. The work stays the same… reduce wishful thinking, increase useful action. When in doubt, return to first moves: name the null, set the stakes, choose the model that answers the one big question, and speak in intervals and verbs. Done well, statistics is generosity. It turns private hunches into public commitments. It builds trust because it shows your work. Keep the cadence: clarity over cleverness, design over decoration, decisions over declarations. Onward.
