    About this series

    Modern work life is a maze, but you can find a shortcut through it.

    We are spending longer hours at work, although we desire more work-life balance. According to the World Population Review, the 10 countries with the longest workweeks averaged 42.2 hours.

    Given how much time you spend at work, wouldn’t it be better if you could be more efficient at your job? The Harvard Business Review says that workers spend as much as 41 percent of the average workday on tasks that don’t add value. 

    Mental Models at Work shows you how to deploy powerful tools to foster workplace success. 

    Here’s just a fraction of what you’ll discover inside:

    • How your current mental models may be helping...or hindering your career success
    • What you need to learn, unlearn, and how to relearn the skills you need at your job with these 5 strategies
    • How to prioritize your workflow the Warren Buffet way
    • Why thinking about your thinking will put you ahead of your colleagues...even if they are better qualified than you
    • Go beyond post its and to-do lists with these 4 mental models to boost productivity
    • Getting “phygital”...why this mindset is critical for the future of work

    ... and much, much more!

    Modern work is like fog, and the vast majority of modern workers are wandering through it. Don’t let this be you. 

    Cut through the fog, gain clarity, and find success using mental models.

    Supercharge your productivity. Get the discipline and the mindset you need to succeed. Buy this audiobook now!

      What would you do if there was a tool to help you make better decisions in less time? You'd jump at the chance, wouldn't you? Mental models help you filter information, which allows you to see things more clearly and make better decisions. Mental models are also a shortcut to finding the quickest and the best route to solve your problems, whether work-related or personal. The beauty of mental models is that their variety is virtually infinite, and they help you come up with solutions for just about any issue. So you're thinking about opening a business. You're not sure what kind of business will be best. The law of Supply and Demand can help. It dictates that companies provide the goods and services demanded by the public. The most profitable companies are those that do this best. Armed with this knowledge, you can now narrow down your options considerably. "Developing the habit of mastering the multiple models that underlie reality is the best thing you could do," according to Charlie Munger, who credits his success to the lifetime cultivation of a "latticework" of mental models on which to frame his decisions. The problem with the average person's mental models is that most are not designed to handle complexity. And while the conscious use of mental models is possible, they require higher-order thinking skills that few people engage in for various reasons. But that doesn't have to be you! Inside you'll find: How mental models declutter your thinking and stimulate decision-making (warning: immediate impact on 4 cognitive processes!) The Master List of mental models (including the best two used by Munger) 3 characteristics that help you to spot an excellent mental model Why we don't use mental models and what we tend to do instead How to make your mental toolkit resemble a Swiss army knife in 5 steps
