Jasné myšlení - Zjednodušte si rozhodování díky snadným a vědou podloženým trikům - Shane Parrish

Máloco dokáže změnit vaši životní nebo podnikatelskou cestu tak, jako naučit se jasně myslet. Přesto jen hrstka z nás rozpozná příležitosti, kdy je třeba s tím začít.Možná jste přesvědčeni, že v nejdůležitějších chvílích myslíte jasně. Ale je velmi pravděpodobné, že když je na vás vyvíjen tlak, nepřemýšlíte vlastně vůbec. A rozhodnutí v takových situacích vás nevyhnutelně vzdalují od toho, po čem toužíte – od lásky, sounáležitosti, úspěchu, bohatství, vítězství. Shane Parrish, zakladatel společnosti Farnam Street, tvrdí, že se musíme zlepšit v rozpoznávání těchto příležitostí a ve využívání našich kognitivních schopností, abychom dosáhli vytouženého života.Kniha Jasné myšlení vám poskytne nástroje, díky nimž rozpoznáte okamžiky, které mají potenciál změnit vaši cestu, a přetvoříte to, jakým se pohybujete v kritickém prostoru mezi podnětem a reakcí. Jak Parrish ukazuje, můžeme si představovat, že jsme hlavními hrdiny příběhu našeho života. Smutnou pravdou však je, že většina z nás běží na autopilota. Naše přednastavené vzorce chování, vytříbené biologií, evolucí a kulturou, jsou připraveny řídit představení za nás, pokud nezasáhneme. V nejhorším případě reagujeme bez rozvahy a ani si neuvědomujeme, že jsme propásli příležitost přemýšlet. Nejlepší možností je, když tyto okamžiky rozpoznáme a uplatníme v nich plnou kapacitu svého uvažování a racionality.Prostřednictvím příběhů, myšlenkových modelů a dalších informací nabízí Parrish chybějící spojení mezi behaviorální vědou a následky v reálném životě. Vzniká tak nepostradatelná příručka pro optimalizaci rozhodování, získání konkurenční výhody a dosažení cílevědomějšího života.

The Great Mental Models: Systems and Mathematics - Shane Parrish

Time and time again, great thinkers like Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger have credited their success to mental models: simple representations of how the world works that can be applied in a wide array of contexts.

The Great Mental Models introduces the most powerful models that anyone can use right away to improve decision making and productivity.In this volume, Shane Parrish introduces simple frameworks borrowed from mathematical and systems thinking, including:Regression to the mean: Over or underperformance over time tends to balance out to the average. Margin of safety: To create a robust system, design for the most extreme possible scenario to avoid catastrophe if it does arise. The law of diminishing returns: The return on any investment, whether money, time or attention, tends to reduce with each additional unit.Building a latticework of mental models is one of the most powerful things you can do to become a better thinker, leader, or creator.

Art of Thinking Clearly - Rolf Dobelli

A world-class thinker counts the 100 ways in which humans behave irrationally, showing us what we can do to recognize and minimize these “thinking errors” to make better decisions and have a better life Despite the best of intentions, humans are notoriously bad—that is, irrational—when it comes to making decisions and assessing risks and tradeoffs. Psychologists and neuroscientists refer to these distinctly human foibles, biases, and thinking traps as “cognitive errors.” Cognitive errors are systematic deviances from rationality, from optimized, logical, rational thinking and behavior. We make these errors all the time, in all sorts of situations, for problems big and small: whether to choose the apple or the cupcake; whether to keep retirement funds in the stock market when the Dow tanks, or whether to take the advice of a friend over a stranger. The “behavioral turn” in neuroscience and economics in the past twenty years has increased our understanding of how we think and how we make decisions. It shows how systematic errors mar our thinking and under which conditions our thought processes work best and worst. Evolutionary psychology delivers convincing theories about why our thinking is, in fact, marred. The neurosciences can pinpoint with increasing precision what exactly happens when we think clearly and when we don’t.Drawing on this wide body of research, The Art of Thinking Clearly is an entertaining presentation of these known systematic thinking errors--offering guidance and insight into everything why you shouldn’t accept a free drink to why you SHOULD walk out of a movie you don’t like it to why it’s so hard to predict the future to why shouldn’t watch the news. The book is organized into 100 short chapters, each covering a single cognitive error, bias, or heuristic. Examples of these concepts include: Reciprocity, Confirmation Bias, The It-Gets-Better-Before-It-Gets-Worse Trap, and the Man-With-A-Hammer Tendency. In engaging prose and with real-world examples and anecdotes, The Art of Thinking Clearly helps solve the puzzle of human reasoning.

The Past is a Grotesque Animal - Tommi Parrish

Tommi Parrish is an Australian trans cartoonist and one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary comics and graphic novels. Balancing emotional honesty with a keen awareness of the human condition, Parrish navigates fear, loneliness, identity, body politics, queer desire, masculinity, fear, and the ever-fluid nature of all human relationships. The Past Is A Grotesque Animal collects over two dozen short stories of varying lengths, interspersed with ephemera from Parrish s own life: diary entries, photographs, illustrations, paintings, and more. Parrish s autobiographical elements inform their voice as a writer, and the ways their characters constantly find one another adrift in their own seas of experience, current situations, trauma, and desire - and how those things coexist, and how they are complicated by outside forces and internal ones that affect our hardwired need for meaningful connection. The book also showcases Parrish s singular and assured visual style, blending clear lines, expressionistic character designs and gorgeously complex, hand-painted colour. I think of my work as trying to work out how to cultivate a type of intimacy that doesn t have a roadmap, and everyone is just feeling around in the dark trying to work out how to do it, Parrish says. I think that s what I am always trying to get at - how to cultivate that closeness when you re also really fucking traumatised and lonely. I know a lot of people where that s their story. There have definitely been moments where that s my story as well.

Shane - Jack Schaefer

If you read only one western in your life, this is the one Roland Smith, author of PeakHe rode into our valley in the summer of 1889, a slim man, dressed in black. Call me Shane, he said. He never told us more. There was a deadly calm in the valley that summer, a slow, climbing tension that seemed to focus on Shane.Seen through the eyes of a young boy, Bob Starrett, SHANE is the classic story of a lone stranger. At first sight, the boy realises there is something unusual about the approaching man, but as Bob gets to know Shane, he realises that there is an inner sadness in him. SHANE is the story of a gunfighter who tries to hang up his gun but is drawn to the side of the boy s family and other homesteaders in their struggle to keep from being forced off their land.

Pulling the Chariot of the Sun - Shane McCrae

Vulture’s #1 Memoir of 2023 An unforgettable, “lyrical and poignant” (The Washington Post) memoir by an award-winning poet about being kidnapped from his Black father and raised by his white supremacist grandparents.When Shane McCrae was three years old, his grandparents kidnapped him and took him to suburban Texas. His mom was white and his dad was Black, and to hide his Blackness from him, his maternal grandparents stole him from his father. In the years that followed, they manipulated and controlled him, refusing to acknowledge his heritage—all the while believing they were doing what was best for him. For their own safety and to ensure the kidnapping remained a success, Shane’s grandparents had to make sure that he never knew the full story, so he was raised to participate in his own disappearance. But despite elaborate fabrications and unreliable memories, Shane begins to reconstruct his own story and to forge his own identity. Gradually, the truth unveils itself, and with the truth, comes a path to reuniting with his father and finding his own place in the world. A revelatory account of an American childhood that hauntingly echoes the larger story of race in our country, Pulling the Chariot of the Sun is written with the virtuosity and heart of one of the finest poets writing today. A powerful reflection on what is broken in America—this is “an essential story for our times” (Hilton Als, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of White Girls).

Vzpřímená chůze po dvou je jedinečnou lidskou dovedností. Umožnila nám migrovat z Afriky a rozšířit se až na Aljašku a do Austrálie. Každý den klademe jednu nohu před druhou - ale kolik z nás ví, jak to děláme, nebo si váží výhod, které nám to dává? Neurovědec Shane O Mara nás vyzývá, abychom obdivovali výhody, které chůze přináší našemu tělu a mozku. Od evolučních kořenů chůze, které lze vysledovat miliony let zpět až k formám života na dně oceánu, až po nové poznatky z nejmodernějších výzkumů, odhaluje, jak nám mozek a nervový systém dávají schopnost udržet rovnováhu, proplétat se přeplněným městem a řídit náš vnitřní GPS systém.

Tristram Shandy - Laurence Sterne

With a new Introduction by Cedric Watts, Research Professor of English, University of Sussex. Laurence Sterne s The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman is a huge literary paradox, for it is both a novel and an anti-novel. As a comic novel replete with bawdy humour and generous sentiments, it introduces us to a vivid group of memorable characters, variously eccentric, farcical and endearing.As an anti-novel, it is a deliberately tantalising and exuberantly egoistic work, ostentatiously digressive, involving the reader in the labyrinthine creation of a purported autobiography. This mercurial eighteenth-century text thus anticipates modernism and postmodernism. Vibrant and bizarre, Tristram Shandy provides an unforgettable experience.We may see why Nietzsche termed Sterne the most liberated spirit of all time .

The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman - Laurence Sterne

L-d! said my mother, what is all this story about? - A COCK and a BULL, said Yorick - And one of the best of its kind, I ever heard Laurence Sterne s great masterpiece of bawdy humour and rich satire defies any attempt to categorize it, with a rich metafictional narrative that might classify it as the first postmodern novel. Part novel, part digression, its gloriously disordered narrative interweaves the birth and life of the unfortunate hero Tristram Shandy, the eccentric philosophy of his father Walter, the amours and military obsessions of Uncle Toby, and a host of other characters, including Dr Slop, Corporal Trim and the parson Yorick. A joyful celebration of the endless possibilities of the art of fiction, Tristram Shandy is also a wry demonstration of its limitations.The text and notes of this volume are based on the acclaimed Florida Edition, with a critical introduction by Melvyn New and Christopher Ricks s introductory essay from the first Penguin Classics edition. The book that I would never tire of ... Sterne was about 250 years ahead of his time Roy Porter, author of Enlightenment: Britain And The Creation Of The Modern World

Teaching Creative Thinking: Developing Learners Who Generate Ideas and Can Think Critically defines and demystifies the essence of creative thinking, and offers action-oriented and research-informed suggestions as to how it can best be developed in learners. Where once it was enough to know and do things, young people now need more than subject knowledge in order to thrive: they need capabilities. Teaching Creative Thinking is the first title in the three-part Pedagogy for a Changing World series, founded upon Lucas and Spencer s philosophy of dispositional teaching a pedagogical approach which aims to cultivate in learners certain dispositions that evidence suggests are going to be valuable to them both at school and in later life. A key capability is creative thinking, and, in 2021, one of the guardians of global comparative standards, PISA, is recognising its importance by making creative thinking the innovative assessment domain to supplement their testing of 15-year-olds core capabilities in English, maths and science. Creative thinkers are inquisitive, collaborative, imaginative, persistent and disciplined and schools which foster these habits of mind in learners need to be creative in engaging children and young people by embedding creativity into their everyday educational experiences. In this extensive enquiry into the nature and nurture of creative thinking, the authors explore the effectiveness of various pedagogical approaches including problem-based learning, growth mindset, playful experimentation and the classroom as a learning community and provide a wealth of tried-and-tested classroom strategies that will boost learners critical and creative thinking skills. The book is structured in an easy-to-access format, combining a comprehensive listing of practical ideas to stimulate lesson planning with expert guidance on integrating them into your practice, followed by plenty of inventive suggestions as to how learners progress can be assessed and tracked along the way by both the pupil and the teacher. The authors then go further to offer exemplars of success by presenting case studies of schools innovations in adopting these approaches, and dedicate a chapter to dispelling any pressing doubts that teachers may have by exposing the potential pitfalls and offering advice on how to avoid them. Venturing beyond the classroom setting, Teaching Creative Thinking also delves into the ways in which a school can work towards the provision of co-curricular experiences such as partnering with a range of external community groups and better engage its leadership team and pupils parents with the idea of creative thinking in order to support learners with opportunities to grow. The authors offer many examples which will inspire schools to do just this, and collate these ideas into building a framework for learning that equips young people in schools today with the twenty-first century skills and capabilities that will enable them to thrive in the workforce of tomorrow. Replete with research-led insight and ready-to-use strategies, Teaching Creative Thinking is a powerful call to action and a practical handbook for all teachers and leaders, in both primary and secondary settings, who want to embed a capabilities approach in their schools.

The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking - Watkins Michael

How did John F. Kennedy put a man on the moon in just under ten years?What can chess teach us about actionable insights?And why should you shake up a business at a time of great success?All of these questions have their answer in strategic thinking. But what is strategic thinking exactly? Are we born with it, or can we nurture it?As a distinct and important capability in leaders, strategic thinking is a remarkably poorly defined, little understood concept, confined to management courses and board meetings. But in The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking, world-renowned expert Michael Watkins shows leaders how they can benefit from it, as long as they have the tools to nurture it.Exploring the six specific mental disciplines that together constitute strategic thinking, each chapter shows how they can create value, and offers prescriptions on how to develop the strategic thinking mindset ourselves. Academically grounded but jargon-free, with real-world examples from all sectors and ages, The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking assesses our innate ability to think strategically, and helps us to cultivate it, leading to better decisions that get proven results.

But often their solutions fall far short of what they want to accomplish and what is truly needed. Moreover, the answers they propose and fund often produce the opposite of what they want over time. We end up with temporary shelters that increase homelessness, drug busts that increase drug-related crime, or food aid that increases starvation.How do these unintended consequences come about and how can we avoid them? By applying conventional thinking to complex social problems, we often perpetuate the very problems we try so hard to solve, but it is possible to think differently, and get different results.Systems Thinking for Social Change enables readers to contribute more effectively to society by helping them understand what systems thinking is and why it is so important in their work. It also gives concrete guidance on how to incorporate systems thinking in problem solving, decision making, and strategic planning without becoming a technical expert.Systems thinking leader David Stroh walks readers through techniques he has used to help people improve their efforts on complex problems like:ending homelessnessimproving public healthstrengthening educationdesigning a system for early childhood developmentprotecting child welfaredeveloping rural economiesfacilitating the reentry of formerly incarcerated people into societyresolving identity-based conflictsand more!  The result is a highly readable, effective guide to understanding systems and using that knowledge to get the results you want.
