Perhaps its worth defining what you mean by "mental model"?
"Mental model" is one of those amorphous words that seems to mean very different things to different people.
Based on your content, it seems to mostly deal with critical thinking rather than what I consider as mental models. Though once again, it's an amorphous word thats unique to the person.
- jvanderbot 6y agoAbsolutely, none of these are mental models by any definition that I can accept. These are advice or aphorisms, based on I suppose experience.
- bigyikes 6y agoUnder my definition of mental model, your comment is discussing the mental models of mental models :)
- ericalexander3 6y agoPeter Senge has a great definition in The Fifth Discipline > Mental models are deeply ingrained assumptions, generalizations, or even pictures of images that influence how we understand the world and how we take action.
