Inversion Thinking

Solve a problem backwards — ask how to guarantee the worst outcome, then avoid all of it. Use when asked to help me not fail at, what could go wrong with, how do I avoid messing up, or think about this in reverse. Produces the inverted question (how to guarantee failure), the specific ways you'd cause the disaster, and then the plan that is simply the avoidance of each — often clearer and more actionable than trying to plan success directly, because failure modes are more concrete than success factors.
