When actual results differ from what our intuition tells us, we call it &quot;counter-intuitive&quot;.<p>When this happens, it could mean that our intuition is right and reality will eventually conform to how we think things should work.<p>But more often, it means that there is more going on than we understand, so we should calibrate our thinking to correspond with what is actually happening.<p>You&#x27;re free to wait for the territory to change to match your map. As for myself, I find it&#x27;s more profitable to update my map to match the territory.
