Morning drives and right before bed

Just before bed, my wife and I would listen to this and we both enjoyed it a lot. It was very easy to listen to and the author did a good job on keeping you hooked as the book dove deeper in the different types of mental models that we all encounter daily.

The narration was great!

The narration of this book was well done and the author made it easy to learn and understand the concept of mental models. Most books often fail to do that, so I really liked this one.

It was good, but could be better

I enjoyed it. However, some parts that I didn’t really get. It’s probably just me since I can’t multi-task (i.e. play games and listen to an audiobook). I should probably listen to it when I’m actually doing nothing, but overall great book!

I’ll probably order the paperback for keepsake!

I really enjoyed this one and I’m thinking of getting the paperback just to have it in my bookshelf! This was a great tool for me in understanding mental models since I’ve only heard of it from a colleague who was talking about it in class. I can’t wait to learn more about it 😊

Made it easy to understand Pareto/Gresham and othe

Mental models are something that’s not quite easy to grasp for many, but this book made it fun to learn more about the topic. Overall, I definitely recommend it to someone who is just starting to utilize mental models!

I enjoyed the narration a lot!

Mental models can be quite dry, but the narration made it very easy to listen to, which I enjoyed quite a lot. Shout out to the narrator for doing a great job.

Overall, great audiobook

Clear and straight to the point. Lots of learning from this audiobook. I love this audiobook.

Would’ve been nice if it were longer

It was short and sweet. I loved it. However, I wish that it was longer…a bit contradictory, but great nonetheless!

Golden nuggets everywhere!

I found a lot of key learnings from listening to this audiobook. The author and the narrator kept the audience in mind when going over the book which made it easy for me to get the most out of it. Highly recommended

An interesting audiobook, reflection is required.

It was a very helpful audiobook in helping me reflect more on my personal schemas, especially when I had a discussion with my partner and friends about the topic. Very informative and it did help me a lot when it comes to improving how I deal with others and how I approach decision making.
