I see it when I believe it,
The human mind is a fascinating thing. It creates a sense of self; it makes fast decisions; it interprets the past; it imagines the future; and yet it is a deceiver of the smartest kind.
Let’s face it: seeing is not believing. It is the other way around. People usually see only the things they believe in.
According to Morgan D. Jones, once we believe something, our favorite mode of operation is to jump to conclusions: “Failure to consider alternatives fully is the most common cause of flawed or incomplete analysis. In other words, we must learn how to keep an open mind – one of the most difficult things we human beings can do.”
Morgan D. Jones’s book has two parts: (1) a short introduction into the way we habitually think, and the strengths and weaknesses of this process, (2) fourteen “tools” how to address the weaknesses and improve the process of thinking. It is a practical primer on decision-making, a hands-on manual how to structure one’s analysis and keep an open mind for alternatives. In short, it tries to teach how to get away from a purely instinctual analysis of a problem to a structured analysis that will, hopefully, yield better results.
Bottom-line: lots of value for your money, in particular if you are convinced that you are the most rational decision-maker in town (you’ll buy an eye-opener).

|Keep this in my backpack/briefcase,
I carry this book with me all the times. When I have a decision to make, I select the best method and use the steps and examples. Has been helpful in emotional family decisions as well as career decisions. I especially liked the first two chapters that describe why smart people make dumb decisions. I can relate to that. Love the book. Recommend it. Easy to read.
