Today's episode is a book review of Shane Parrish's "The Great Mental Models Vol. 1".

This book has drastically transformed my way of thinking since I've listened to it on Audible. I already know I'll be buying the hard copy and re-visiting it *often* for the next few years. I genuinely could not recommend it more! 

In today's episode we discussed 3 of Parrish's 9 mental models, practically relating them to our real lives as Egyptians or Middle Easterners in general. How can we make better, more well informed decisions? 

The three mental models we explored were: 

  1. The Map is Not the Territory 
  2. Occam's Razor 
  3. Hanlon's Razor
