Learn mental models for error-proof thinking, analysis, and decisions.


The world is not as it seems. It requires a bit more analysis to see reality, and applying mental models is the best way to start.

A thinking toolkit for nearly all problems and complexities in life.


Think in Models is a collection of the world's (and history's) greatest mental models that are exclusively focused on getting the most insight from the least amount of information. You'll learn over 20 of the most helpful and widely-applicable mental models and above all else, learn to think like a genius.

A wide variety of examples, explanations, and step-by-step guidelines are also included.


Nick Trenton grew up in rural Illinois and is quite literally a farm boy. His best friend growing up was his trusty companion Leonard the dachshund. RIP Leonard. Eventually, he made it off the farm and obtained a BS in Economics, followed by an MA in Behavioral Psychology.

Knowing how to think is always better than having more information.
