Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
A roadmap for thinking clearly in any situation.
We all aspire to see the world clearly. And yet all too often, when the pressure is on, we give in to our most irrational impulses - making intuitive decisions that take us ever-further from our goals.
In Clear Thinking, Shane Parrish - 'the former spy who helps Wall Street mavens think smarter' (New York Times) - explains how to think clearly in any situation. He shows that the path to clear thinking lies not in the most high-stakes decisions, but in the most ordinary moments - from how we start our mornings to how we approach our daily conversations. And he uses stories, mental models, and psychological insights to offers a transformative method for seeing through our biases and understanding what's really happening.
The result is a must-have manual for optimizing decision-making and living intentionally. It will clear your head and transform your life.

Lots of delights and useful highlights
Clear thinking is a really great audible if you find yourself making impulsive decisions or running on default.
This text teaches you numerous techniques to enable you to consider, evaluate and invoke effective processes and safeguards that will help you make good decisions, learn from the bad ones and become an even better decision maker.
But what really sets this book apart is how Shane tells each story and helps you understand the why and what sonyou can repurpose his advice effectively for your own life.

I think I'd have preferred the print version.
Audiobooks offer a convenient way to absorb content, perfect for multitasking during daily routines like driving, chores, and exercise. However, as I discovered whilst listening to this book, it can be challenging to fully grasp the material when your attention is divided. I couldn't help but realise that I might have missed out on some valuable points had I not been preoccupied.
In retrospect, this book seems better suited for a dedicated, note-taking session rather than casual listening whilst on the go—a sentiment I believe Shane would share.
The only drawback, aside from my own divided attention, was the narrator's style. While not a bad narrator, his voice had an old-fashioned quality that felt out of sync with the book's contemporary content. Personally, I would have preferred Shane's narration throughout the entire book.

I wish I had read this book 20 years ago
One of the few “self help books” that is an essential to enable you to think and make decisions based on what is important to you rather than simply follow a method or strategy that is made for hypothetical living

Important stuff but not much new
I was a bit disappointed with this one. The subject is something I’m very interested in and the contents were generally fine. However, I didn’t find anything much new in it with someone who has already listened to a few books in the area and has an interest.
I also found it slightly lacking in clear actions to implement. The whole first half of the book was very theoretical before getting onto much that is actionable.

So simple, so meaningful, so beautiful
I loved the flow of the narrative exploring inner and outer worlds. A masterpiece by Shane, similar top value as his Mental Models series.
I use this book as a guideline and check list until I develop clear thinking as habits - it helps me to have it close by in either audio, electronic or print format.
