すごく鋭い視点ですね。
実は「戦略的あいまいさをやめて、明確化（strategic clarity）した結果、逆に情勢を不安定化させた」例は、現代史の中でいくつもあります。代表的なものをいくつか挙げます。
ジョージ・W・ブッシュ政権がイラク・イラン・北朝鮮を「悪の枢軸」と名指しして「体制転換（regime change）」を公言しました。
これにより、あいまいだったアメリカの方針が「明確に敵視」に転換。
結果どうなったかというと、
北朝鮮は「抑止のためには核しかない」としてNPTを脱退し、核実験路線に突入。
つまり、「あいまいさを捨てたことで、敵側に先制的な行動を促してしまった」典型例です。
冷戦後、NATOは旧ソ連圏への拡大を「あいまい」にしていました。
しかし、2008年ブカレスト会議で「ウクライナとジョージアは将来加盟する」と明言。
この「明確化」がロシアにとって「NATOがいずれ我が国境に来る」という恐怖を確定させ、
結果として2008年のグルジア侵攻、2014年のクリミア併合、2022年の全面侵攻へとつながった、という見方が専門家の間で強いです。
つまり、「明確にした瞬間に、相手が『今のうちにやるしかない』と決断する」構図。
ディーン・アチソン国務長官が演説で「アメリカの防衛線はアリューシャン列島・日本・沖縄・フィリピンを結ぶ」と発言し、朝鮮半島を外した。
これが北朝鮮とスターリンに「アメリカは韓国を守らない」と受け取られ、侵攻を決断させた。
アメリカが「台湾防衛を明確に公約すべき」との声がありますが、
それを本当にやると、中国は「それなら武力統一の準備を早める」と判断しかねない。
「やるかもしれない」「やらないかもしれない」という抑止のバランスで保たれています。
ここを明確化したら、東アジアの安全保障構造が一気に緊張化する可能性が高い。
要するに、
「あいまいさをなくせばスッキリする」と思うのは国内政治的には分かりやすいけど、
国際政治の現場では、あいまいさこそが“冷静な抑止”の土台なんです。
言い換えれば——
「女は育ちの悪い男のリハビリセンターではありません。男を更生させたり、変えたり、あやしたり、育てたりするのは女の仕事ではありません。
パートナーが欲しいのであって、自ら課題に取り組みたいわけではないのだから。」IIナイジェリアの女性活動家から始まり世界中の女性が継承・強化している言葉
Women are not rehabilitation centers for badly raised men. It is NOT your job to fix him, change him, parent him or raise him. You want a partner, not a project.

Also not paying taxes on tips is an incredibly stupid way to go about distributing a tax benefit. If you want to cut taxes for lower income, do that. Change the income thresholds or the marginal tax rate, don’t just change taxes on an income stream that is mostly correlated with lower incomes.
Server here. I was saying this the first time he announced it. Wtf would WE get this bonus and noone else. Makes ZERO sense until you realize... he was buying younger votes
Not to mention tipping is out of hand as it is, we shouldn’t be trying to create more tax incentives for it.
Worse than that. It lets them tie tax break extensions to a future, wildly unpopular bill. That’s how “the Big Beautiful Bill” got passed. No one was going to vote to not extend the last round of temporary tax cuts for the middle class. They would crow about the other problems in the bill, but the powers that be weren’t going to remove any of the problem elements. They would just label anyone who didn’t vote for the bill as for a tax increase...........

The Power of Small Steps: How Tiny Changes Can Lead to Massive Growth
In a world that glorifies overnight success and dramatic transformations, it's easy to feel like you’re falling behind if you’re not making big leaps. But what if the secret to real, lasting personal growth wasn’t in doing more, faster—but in doing less, consistently?
Welcome to the power of small steps.
Big goals often feel overwhelming. You want to get fit, write a book, start a business, or learn a new skill—but you don’t know where to start. So you procrastinate. Or worse, you dive in too fast, burn out, and give up.
Small steps bypass all of that.
When you break down a huge goal into manageable actions, everything changes. Writing 500 words a day is less intimidating than finishing a whole novel. Ten minutes of walking is more doable than committing to a 5K. And spending 15 minutes a day learning a language adds up to over 90 hours a year.
Consistency beats intensity every time.
The Compound Effect
Imagine improving just 1% every day. That might sound insignificant—but over a year, it compounds into something extraordinary. This idea is the foundation of Darren Hardy’s The Compound Effect and James Clear’s Atomic Habits. Both books emphasize that small, smart choices, repeated over time, lead to radical results.
Think of your habits like planting seeds. At first, nothing seems to happen. But give it time, and you’ll see growth you never thought possible.
Real-Life Example: The 10-Minute Rule
Let’s say you want to start meditating but can’t sit still for 30 minutes. Instead of forcing it, try meditating for just 10 minutes a day. Or even 5. Build the habit before scaling the effort. Once it becomes part of your routine, extending the time feels natural.
This applies to nearly everything:
Want to read more? Read one page a day.
Want to save money? Start with $1 a day.
Want to eat healthier? Swap one snack a day for a better option.
How to Start Taking Small Steps
Pick one goal
Don’t try to overhaul your entire life at once. Choose one area to focus on—health, creativity, relationships, mindset, etc.
Break it down
What’s the smallest possible action you could take toward that goal? Make it so easy you can’t say no.
Link your new habit to an existing one. For example: “After I brush my teeth, I’ll journal for 5 minutes.”
Track it
Use a habit tracker, app, or notebook to keep yourself accountable. Seeing your streak grow is highly motivating.
Every time you follow through, give yourself credit. Progress is progress, no matter how small.
Final Thoughts
Don’t wait for motivation. Don’t wait for the perfect time. Just start—with whatever you have, wherever you are, and however small.
Because small steps, taken consistently, turn into big change.

When you break down a huge goal into manageable actions, everything changes. Writing 500 words a day is less intimidating than finishing a whole novel. Ten minutes of walking is more doable than committing to a 5K. And spending 15 minutes a day learning a language adds up to over 90 hours a year.
Consistency beats intensity every time.
The Compound Effect
Imagine improving just 1% every day. That might sound insignificant—but over a year, it compounds into something extraordinary. This idea is the foundation of Darren Hardy’s The Compound Effect and James Clear’s Atomic Habits. Both books emphasize that small, smart choices, repeated over time, lead to radical results.
Think of your habits like planting seeds. At first, nothing seems to happen. But give it time, and you’ll see growth you never thought possible.
Real-Life Example: The 10-Minute Rule
Let’s say you want to start meditating but can’t sit still for 30 minutes. Instead of forcing it, try meditating for just 10 minutes a day. Or even 5. Build the habit before scaling the effort. Once it becomes part of your routine, extending the time feels natural.
This applies to nearly everything:
Want to read more? Read one page a day.
Want to save money? Start with $1 a day.
Want to eat healthier? Swap one snack a day for a better option.
How to Start Taking Small Steps
Pick one goal
Don’t try to overhaul your entire life at once. Choose one area to focus on—health, creativity, relationships, mindset, etc.
Break it down
What’s the smallest possible action you could take toward that goal? Make it so easy you can’t say no.
Link your new habit to an existing one. For example: “After I brush my teeth, I’ll journal for 5 minutes.”
Track it
Use a habit tracker, app, or notebook to keep yourself accountable. Seeing your streak grow is highly motivating.
Every time you follow through, give yourself credit. Progress is progress, no matter how small.
Final Thoughts
Don’t wait for motivation. Don’t wait for the perfect time. Just start—with whatever you have, wherever you are, and however small.
Because small steps, taken consistently, turn into big change.

The Power of Small Steps: How Tiny Changes Can Lead to Massive Growth

Big goals often feel overwhelming. You want to get fit, write a book, start a business, or learn a new skill—but you don’t know where to start. So you procrastinate. Or worse, you dive in too fast, burn out, and give up.
Small steps bypass all of that.
When you break down a huge goal into manageable actions, everything changes. Writing 500 words a day is less intimidating than finishing a whole novel. Ten minutes of walking is more doable than committing to a 5K. And spending 15 minutes a day learning a language adds up to over 90 hours a year.
Consistency beats intensity every time.
The Compound Effect
Imagine improving just 1% every day. That might sound insignificant—but over a year, it compounds into something extraordinary. This idea is the foundation of Darren Hardy’s The Compound Effect and James Clear’s Atomic Habits. Both books emphasize that small, smart choices, repeated over time, lead to radical results.
Think of your habits like planting seeds. At first, nothing seems to happen. But give it time, and you’ll see growth you never thought possible.
Real-Life Example: The 10-Minute Rule
Let’s say you want to start meditating but can’t sit still for 30 minutes. Instead of forcing it, try meditating for just 10 minutes a day. Or even 5. Build the habit before scaling the effort. Once it becomes part of your routine, extending the time feels natural.
This applies to nearly everything:
Want to read more? Read one page a day.
Want to save money? Start with $1 a day.
Want to eat healthier? Swap one snack a day for a better option.
How to Start Taking Small Steps
Pick one goal
Don’t try to overhaul your entire life at once. Choose one area to focus on—health, creativity, relationships, mindset, etc.
Break it down
What’s the smallest possible action you could take toward that goal? Make it so easy you can’t say no.
Link your new habit to an existing one. For example: “After I brush my teeth, I’ll journal for 5 minutes.”
Track it
Use a habit tracker, app, or notebook to keep yourself accountable. Seeing your streak grow is highly motivating.
Every time you follow through, give yourself credit. Progress is progress, no matter how small.
Final Thoughts
Don’t wait for motivation. Don’t wait for the perfect time. Just start—with whatever you have, wherever you are, and however small.
Because small steps, taken consistently, turn into big change.
