6 Ways to Become The Smartest Thinker in the Room (Audio)

In the fifth installment in a series of episodes, The Knowledge Project curates essential segments from five guests revolving around one theme: learning and thinking. This episode will help you create an environment that’s more conducive to clear thinking, improve your intuition, learn the difference between the two main modes of thinking, examine the learning process, use “online experimentation” to develop good judgment, and eliminate blind spots in your thought processes.
The guests on this episode are psychologist and economist Daniel Kahneman (Episode 68), engineering professor Barbara Oakley (Episode 31), author and global macro advisor Adam Robinson (Episodes 47 and 48), economist and professor Tyler Cowen (Episode 39), and author and organizational psychology professor Adam Grant (Episode 112).

You can't learn to think clearly until you GROW UP. And we all stop maturing around 14 years old, due to no standards in our lives. If you really want to "think clearly" you need real magic in your life. It's the only standard by which you'll finish growing up. The real thing can't be faked, can't be pretended, and is impossible if you are wasting your energy on nonsense. Follow the rabbit hole if you want to break the laws of physics, with good instructions for how to do that in a community that actually is and will help you to do it also. And no one wants your money there! Or just keep pretending if you prefer.
