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!
This book will give you the tools to simplify complexity and help you create the latticework that serves you best. Inside you'll

Munger is not the only prominent figure to have tapped into the insights provided by mental models. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have also repeatedly cited the central role in their personal and professional lives. That's a rare company to be in.
