Mighty Knowledge - 📜 Adaptive Thinking

Hi friend.

I've shared many articles, books, and other resources in the past about how to think well. A lot of it involves understanding psychology and strategy, and then methodically applying the knowledge of those fields to real life. This works well when you have the time to slow down, think, and apply what you know.

But sometimes the real world doesn't afford you that much time. There are often time pressures under which you still have to make good decisions. In fact, it is often those very tense, high-pressure situations where it is the most critical for your life to think well.

For such situations, we need a different skill: Adaptive Thinking. It is the art of being able to think rationally at high-speed and under pressure. This brilliant article by Ivaylo Durmonski explains it: Adaptive Thinking: The Best Way to Deal With Unexpected Situations.

Happy learning,
George
