Mastering Mental Models

On this episode of Changing Minds, I dive into the world of mental models-powerful frameworks that help us make better decisions and solve problems more effectively. From the insights of Chris Williamson, George Mack, Shane Parrish, Warren Buffett, and Naval Ravikant, to the strategies of Annie Duke and Nassim Nicholas Taleb, we explore a wide range of models that can transform your thinking. Join me as I break down 25 essential mental models that will enhance your understanding and application of key concepts from psychology, economics, and beyond.

"If you're a positive person all the time, you'll be quite boring, if you're a negative person all the time you'll be quite annoying. When you're both positive and negative at the same time, that makes you an interesting human. Be that as it may, in the pursuit of freedom from existential suffering a quietmind is the best tool. A positive mind and a negative mind are still the same turbulent mind. What we want is a quiet mind that can listen to the wisdom of the universe."

I learned NLP from the NLP Center in New York, and I have to say that what I learned covers what is in these books. Makes me realize how comprehensive NLP really is.
