About this ebook

Why do smart people keep making bad calls? Here's how to think clearly.


First impressions, moods, and pressure bend judgment before a choice is even made, and most people never notice it happening.


How to Think Clearly gives you one fixed routine to run on any important judgment, from checking your own state of mind to reviewing how the decision turned out.


🧮 The $1.10 bat-and-ball puzzle that around half of students at top schools get wrong

⏱️ The 23 minutes it takes to get back on task after a single interruption

🌦️ A one-minute mood check that shows when a decision should wait

💧 The eight-glasses-of-water rule, and what happened when someone went looking for the evidence

💊 A pill scare that "doubled" clot risk while moving it from 1 in 7,000 to 2 in 7,000

🔁 One question about the opposite conclusion that sharply cuts biased judgment

🖼️ The same choice worded two ways, and the 72 percent to 22 percent swing it caused


Get your copy. Run the routine on your next big decision.
