Mental Models to Shape Life
Mental Models to Shape Life
H/T Oleg Moskalensky
Choose and expand your mental models.
Not all mental models, however, are beneficial. The good ones help us make positive decisions. The rest nudge us to make either neutral decisions – ones that are neither beneficial nor detrimental to us – or bad decisions. Obviously having models that prompt us to make bad decisions is a problem. A bigger problem, though, is that many people don’t realize they have those models in the first place, and so don’t realize that they are being influenced by them. In fact, many people are barely aware that they have any kind of mental models. They just go through life mechanically following preprogrammed paths and think they’re fully in control, when, in fact, they’re traveling on autopilot.
