In 1738, Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet) invited readers to ‘see’ the world through the eyes of Micromegas, a scientist from the Sirius solar system, who stood 37 km tall, and had a potential lifespan of 100,000 years (Voltaire 1752). Such traits conferred impartiality and an extension of scale regarding phenomena on earth.

The most important thing to remember, is to look beyond the familiar of your inner operating environment – in other words, expand the SCALE at which you perceive phenomena.
