Shane Parrish

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFew things will change your trajectory in life or business as much as learning to think clearly. Yet few of us recognize opportunities to think in the first place.You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.Clear Thinking gives you the tools to recognize the moments that have the potential to transform your trajectory, and reshape how you navigate the critical space between stimulus and response. As Parrish shows, we may imagine we are the protagonists in the story of our lives. But the sad truth is, most of us run on autopilot. Our behavioral defaults, groomed by biology, evolution, and culture, are primed to run the show for us if we don’t intervene. At our worst, we react to events without reasoning, not even realizing that we’ve missed an opportunity to think at all. At our best, we recognize these moments for what they are, and apply the full capacity of our reasoning and rationality to them.Through stories, mental models, and more, Parrish offers the missing link between behavioral science and real-life outcomes. The result is a must-have manual for optimizing decision-making, gaining competitive advantage, and living a more intentional life.

The old saying goes, "To the man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail." But anyone who has done any kind of project knows a hammer often isn't enough.The more tools you have at your disposal, the more likely you'll use the right tool for the job — and get it done right.The same is true when it comes to your thinking. The quality of your outcomes depends on the mental models in your head. And most people are going through life with little more than a hammer.Until now.The Great Mental Models: General Thinking Concepts is the first book in The Great Mental Models series designed to upgrade your thinking with the best, most useful and powerful tools so you always have the right one on hand.This volume details nine of the most versatile, all-purpose mental models you can use right away to improve your decision making, productivity, and how clearly you see the world.

Suntem invatati sa ne concentram pe deciziile importante mai degraba decat pe momentele in care nici macar nu ne dam seama ca facem o alegere. Totusi, aceste momente obisnuite au adesea o importanta mai mare pentru succesul nostru decat deciziile mari, insa acest lucru poate fi dificil de apreciat. Credem ca, daca luam deciziile potrivite in aspectele importante, vom avea parte de un final fericit. Daca alegem sa ne casatorim cu persoana potrivita, vom fi fericiti. Daca alegem cariera potrivita, vom fi impliniti. Daca alegem investitia corecta, vom deveni bogati. Aceasta intelepciune este, cel mult, partial adevarata. Poti sa te casatoresti cu cea mai uimitoare persoana din lume, dar daca nu depui efort, totul se va termina. Poti sa alegi cea mai buna cariera, dar daca nu muncesti din greu, nu vei obtine oportunitati. Poti gasi investitia perfecta, dar sa-ti dai seama ca nu ai nimic de investit. Chiar si cand luam decizii mari in directia corecta, nu este garantat ca vom obtine rezultatele dorite. In realitate, trebuie sa invatam ca deciziile pe care le luam in momente putin importante, puse cap la cap, ne contureaza viitorul. Arta de a lua cele mai bune decizii iti ofera instrumentele necesare pentru a recunoaste momentele care au potentialul de a-ti schimba traiectoria si de a-ti remodela felul in care navighezi in spatiul critic dintre stimul si raspuns. Dupa cum arata Parrish, am putea sa ne imaginam ca suntem protagonistii in povestea vietii noastre, dar trista realitate este ca majoritatea dintre noi functionam pe pilot automat. Comportamentele noastre implicite, cultivate de biologie, de evolutie si de cultura, sunt pregatite sa preia controlul daca nu intervenim. Prin povesti, modele mentale si nu numai, Parrish ofera legatura lipsa dintre stiintele comportamentale si consecintele din viata reala. Rezultatul este un manual absolut necesar pentru optimizarea luarii deciziilor, obtinerea unui avantaj competitiv si trairea unei vieti asa cum iti doresti.
