Models can be people, too. But the only way to do that is to kind of step up and keep doing new things that no one has thought of, from new websites to new blogs, a newscast, doing speeches, talking to kids.

The key to transforming mental models is to interrupt the automatic responses that are driven by the old model and respond differently based on the new model.
