Empathy is to put yourself in other people's position or social position, and see what you would do if you were in this position, instead of just standing in your own position, you should think about the problem from multiple positions.

And reverse thinking is one thing that follows, but you have to think in the opposite direction. He doesn't mean there are multiple positions, he just wants to go in the opposite direction.

Empathy, mainly aimed at everyone's position, is different from the main idea, but reverse thinking? He is a review in the opposite direction.

So there are similarities between the two, but they are also completely different. This is relative.

What you meet is what you meet in life. After all, you should learn to put yourself in others' shoes and see what you should do if you are this person. If you encounter such a problem, how should you solve it?

When something is difficult to change and solve, think in the opposite direction. If you think in the opposite direction, will it be better to solve it?

So empathy and reverse thinking are different.
