Second Order Thinking

Hello members and subscribers! The ninth Moonshots Master episode is here and we are diving into Critical Thinking and SECOND ORDER THINKING!Helping set the scene for Second Order Thinking we think it only right to start with Howard Marks, who explains why if you think the same as everyone else you're not going to be a superior investor. We then have breakdowns, courtesy Yanis from Time Management and Productivity, of both Second Order Thinking and how it influences future actions, as well as Second Order Consequences and how every action has a consequence.Now it’s time to truly understand the concept of Second Order Thinking, so we break down some thinking from Roman Krznaric of Big Think, who tells us that it is possible to utilise long term thinking and imagine the future if you retrain your brain. Swedish Investor then breaks down Howard Marks’ 3 chapters on risk, and how understand, recognize, and control it. Lastly, we have Taylor Benterud, who creates a great example of second order consequences for us, demonstrating some long-term thinking as a mental model with an agency model example.Helping us adopt the practice and techniques of Second Order Thinking we get introduced to the concept of critical thinking with the TED-Ed channel which help us find the most useful information. We then have Jordan Peterson teaching us how critical thinking and writing are so interconnected. And finally, we have classic Moonshotter Adam Grant who emphasises the power of procrastination, and how it’s essential to leave yourself enough time to really think and grow.Our reading list is full of tips, tricks and tools to help you harness your thinking, decision making and Second Order Thinking:The Most Important Thing: Uncommon Sense for the Thoughtful Investor, Howard MarksHoward Marks' Second Level Thinking Skills, MindToolsSecond-Order Thinking: What Smart People Use to Outperform, Farnham StreetSecond Order Thinking, Noah Pepper on MediumSecond Order Thinking: Thinking Practice To Make Better Decisions, TechTelloSuper Thinking: The Big Book of Mental Models, Gabriel Weinberg and Lauren McCannThinking, Fast and Slow Paperback, Daniel KahnemanSecond-order thinking, UnTools5 tips to improve your critical thinking, Samantha AgoosMaking Better Decisions With Second-Order Thinking, SchoolOfMomentumDr Jordan B.

Daniel H. Pink: The Power of Regret

Episode 170: Daniel H. Pink: 'Regret is not dangerous or abnormal, it is healthy and universal, an integral part of being human', Daniel H. Pink writes in his provocative and eye-opening new book. The Power Of Regret. 'Done right, it needn't bring us down; it can lift us up.'Drawing from research in social psychology, neuroscience, biology, and more, as well as from more than 10,000 people in 35 countries around the world who responded to his World Regret Survey - the largest of its kind ever conducted - Pink challenges the idea of regret being a drag on our self-esteem and outlook. In fact, understanding how regret actually works and using those insights to reframe our perspective of it will help us reclaim regret and bring greater meaning to our lives.

Finding Your Purpose

Hello members and subscribers! The eighth Moonshots Master episode is an under-considered topic in Personal development and transformation: FINDING YOUR PURPOSE.To prove the value of knowing your purpose, we hear from all-time great Moonshotters. Kyle Maynard explains why we should find our purpose and how making excuses is what makes you incapable of success. We then hear from Dan Millman who says we all need to learn to enjoy the journey of your life, and not let our ego drive our emotions. Breaking down the illusion of originality, we have Elizabeth Gilbert stating that authenticity and action shouldn’t be limited by what’s been done before.Now that we're ready to understand the full value of knowing our purpose, we listen to Mark Manson and The Diary of a CEO discuss why we all need to figure out what you want in order to disregard the less important stuff. Two Moonshot heavy-weights break down rethinking cycles together, with Adam Grant and Shane Parrish discussing keeping your sense of identity separate from ego. Staying true to his purpose, we have Matthew McConaughey telling the story of what happened when he started saying ‘no’ to Rom Coms (and money).In our final part we learn actionable frameworks and behaviours to help us make habits today. We hear from Simon Sinek and how you must start with a clear message in mind - in life and work - accessible via the golden circle. We then have Tim Tamashiro breaking down his ikigai and helping us know how to create ours. Lastly we realise there are no excuses for starting today, as Ryan Holiday explains how Marcus Aurelius always made time to think clearly and journal.

Mark Manson: The subtle art of not giving a f*ck

Mark Manson says most of us struggle throughout our lives by giving too many f’s in situations where f’s do not deserve to be given. Finding something important and meaningful in your life is the most productive use of your time and energy. This is true because every life has problems associated with it and finding meaning in your life will help you sustain the effort needed to overcome the particular problems you face.  In his book, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, we can say that the key to living a good life is not giving a f’s about more things, but rather, giving a f- only about the things that align with your personal values.  Thanks to our monthly supporters Brandy Farmer Edwin Deitch Jamie Dorward Emily Rose Banks Malcolm Magee Natalie Ryan N.
