Resumen del Editor

Have you ever thought to question your thinking? Did you know you use mental models every day? Or, have you ever felt in a mental rut where nothing is new and exciting to think about?

If you are curious about any of these questions, this audiobook will give you to the answers you have been searching for. So many people have no idea what a mental model is or that they control our lives.

Mental models are the mind’s framework to help us make sense of the world, solve problems, and make informed decisions. They are built with your education, past experiences, and habits of thought you create over time.

But did you know your mental models can go wrong? And even be harmful to your life?

Harmful models come from biases or ill-formed beliefs, which can cause you to have low self-esteem, depression, and poor relationships. Understanding how mental models work is the first step toward using models to make you function more efficiently, make better, more logic-based decisions, and use your mental energy more wisely.

In his influential 2011 book Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman explains the two systems of thinking the brain has and why it uses mental models. He reveals that while part of our thinking is slow, thoughtful, and requires effort, the other part of our brain wants to conserve energy, using mental models to build shortcuts and patterns to automate our thoughts.

In this audiobook, you’ll learn:

• The best and most effective way to train your mind, just like you train your body to reach your greatest potential and find your power!
• Reasons why your intuition may be seriously hindering or even hurting you
• The most-used models and how to reverse them to find mental flexibility and opportunity
• Ways how you’re unconsciously limiting yourself and narrowing your mind
• The key to getting out of your mental rut, before it’s too late
• Steps to rid yourself of your “default” ways of thinking to improve your relationships and love yourself
• Ways to maximize life’s benefits by changing your thinking
• Reasons why the most successful and happiest people are so good at “thinking out of the box” and how you can, too

Get a step ahead of everyone else by understanding your models, beliefs, and biases, so that you become aware of when they are affecting your choices and judgments.

With this book, you will build your mental toolbox to more efficiently and effectively make decisions, solve problems, and realize your life’s greatest potential.

This book is worth it!

For anyone who wants to elevate their analytical mind and separate themselves from the crowd, this book is worth its weight in gold.

Bravo!!!

I will peruse it again and referencing it much of the time until I have every one of the models effectively nearby for my utilization. Bravo!!!

To improve critical thinking.

A good presentation on aspects of critical thinking. Very broad set of suggestions to improve critical thinking.

You can listen more on it.

I am familiar with some of these models, but this book turns my rudimentary understanding into real tools. It cuts to the chase and forces you to get busy implementing these ideas. You can listen more on it.

This audiobook needs to be improve.

This audiobook needs to be improve yet I really liked the content of it. It was good narrated as well.

Great book!

This book was well structured and easy to understand. It has a minimalistic approach with well thought threw explanations. Great book!

Make your life easier, if applied correctly.

One of the most interesting and fun to follow books that I have read regarding the way our mind can help us (or trick us) in different aspects of life. It provides you a great overview of what mental models are, and how many of them can make your life easier, if applied correctly.

Flows very well.

This is a book for people who like down to the point, effective and concise reading. The book is well organized and flows very well.

I recommend it!

I found this book to be a good book for developing your thinking models. I recommend it!

Worth the time. Thanks.

I never praise a book because it is to exchange your thoughts for those of the author. It makes sense to just move on. But this is a valuable addition to thinking... New but conservative ways of understanding. Worth the time. Thanks.
