Unlock the potential of mental models

So what are mental models, and why are they so crucial? Picture mental models as the cognitive blueprints we use to understand the world around us, make decisions, and solve problems. But why are they important? The mental models we use directly influence the quality of our decisions and, by extension, the outcomes we experience in life. Having a diverse array of mental models allows us to approach problems from different angles, enhancing our problem-solving capabilities and aiding us in making better decisions.

Make Better Decisions

I spent two years and over 1,000 hours researching mental models. I chose to write about 50, carefully selected for their value, and distilled them into an easy-to-follow primer.

These models simplify complexity and provide you with a clearer understanding of life. They also enable you to make decisions confidently and approach problem-solving more efficiently and effectively. Update your outdated mental models and equip yourself with a tool to transform your decision-making and problem-solving approach.

Hi, I’m
Juan Carlos

I’m a creator at heart, a filmmaker by instinct, and a polymath who thrives on diversity. My life’s work is about framing: capturing, exploring, and sometimes breaking conventional boundaries to uncover deeper truths.

My Story

From directing award-winning films to leading product innovation at startups, my career spans the creative and the analytical. I’ve authored children’s books under desert skies, each designed to spark curiosity and independent thought in young minds. Whether through technology that simplifies complex issues or through mental models that enhance clarity, I constantly strive to reimagine how we perceive and interact with the world.

In my personal life, I’m a father fascinated by nature and humanity’s marvels. I share this wonder with my children as we explore the world’s beauty together. Every day offers a new frame, reminding us that what we focus on defines our lives’ story.
