Who should listen to Summary & Discussions of Think Again?

Those who: serve as managers or leaders; tend to stick with what is expected instead of what they want; feel trapped in their life choices because it is too difficult to change them; have never changed their mind about a big decision; are interested in the science behind how we make decisions.

What's in it for me, and why is it important?

We must learn to unlearn and then rethink what we believe and fight for when new information is presented. This can be applied to everything, from changing school majors to knowing what your perfect life partner will be like. Knowing how to rethink and approach things with a scientific lens can also help a business when trying to help others change direction or simply set the tone for a new organization. This book has something for every listener.

You'll soon discover:

• For many years, the beliefs we have held are not necessarily based on strong facts but on an opinion that is free to change
• The ability to rethink resides in all of us, but few ever access it with regularity.
• We all possess a pastor, prosecutor, and politician who argues our case when we have strong beliefs.
• Even if we lose a year or two by changing paths in our careers, it is better than spending 20 in an area we truly hate.
• Using a scientific approach to decision-making and discussing opinions is a wonderful way to keep learning throughout life.

Audio vs Book

In this case, the book was a better experience than the audiobook, and don’t get me wrong, I love the audiobook… but I think we missed something here!

Summary and Discussions

I’m working through the original book but also wanted to review a summary to get a different perspective. I found the summary very helpful and aligned with my understanding of the book so far. Clearly summarized and thoughtful discussion points.
