The way you think about the world influences the way you live in it. But what happens when the beliefs and assumptions guiding your decisions are wrong?

In this episode, Sim explores mental models, what they are, why they matter, and how they influence the way we navigate life. He discusses Charlie Munger's latticework of mental models, why outdated ways of thinking can hold you back, and how to audit your own assumptions to make better decisions.

You'll also learn how to start building your own collection of mental models so you can think more clearly, recognize opportunities, and avoid costly mistakes.

3. Freedom - https://freedom.to/

We live in a world full of rampant propaganda and disinformation.

People controlling other people, institutions, organizations, and corporations of all kinds controlling people; governments controlling people.

People "casting spells" on each other by way of the tongue, as Don Miguel Ruiz would say in The Four Agreements.

Because everywhere you turn, there's a script or series of scripts not designed to make you thrive - but to keep you compliant.

In this episode, Sim peels back the curtain on 6 of the biggest "psy ops", cultural scripts that may be running you in the background of your awareness.

Each of these 6 intertwine yet have their own distinct flavor. Which means they'll destroy you in different ways - if you let them.

Listen to this podcast episode to learn how to take back your power.
