Would you drive down a cliff if the maps app on your phone said there was a route ahead? Of course not, right? It’s because the map is not the territory. Things you learn about the world you live in are abstractions. Abstractions are only possible when we make assumptions and simplify detail. The map is never the full territory. The territory has more to it. The models we use daily, while useful, never give the full picture.
Nudge › How is a self-improvement project. The idea is to share small, actionable steps to help others lead a better, more balanced life. Mental Models are heuristics or thought patterns that help make sense of the world. This collection has minimal illustrations describing mental models. These are a part of our content stream on Instagram. We also have a newly minted Discord where we come together to discuss ideas!
