Practising Mind Zoom

Being able to zoom into minutest details and zoom out to the big picture in an instant is an awesome skill. Such a skill is needed to understand complex spreadsheets quickly, both from super-broad high-level perspective to super-precise low-level perspective. Practising mind zoom is more efficient than doing a full context shift to move between high and low level components. A problem many high-level executives might have is they are able to zoom out quite well, but then they "zoom-in and zone-out" and fail to follow the intricate low-level detail precisely. You should be able to zoom-in and zoom-out in less than half a second and not end up in "mind-fog" at the first sign of zoom-in. Mind zoom is defined formally as the ability to zoom in and out of a complex problem instantaneously, fully harnessing the "telescope" of the mind.
