1. The Map is not the Territory

2. Circle of Competence

3. First Principles: The Building Blocks of True Knowledge

   • Socratic Questning
     • Clarifying your thinking and explaining the origins of your ideas (Why do I think this? What exactly do I think?)
     • Challenging assumptions (How do I know this is true? What if I thought the opposite?)
     • Looking for evidence (How can I back this up? What are the sources?)
     • Considering alternative perspectives (What might others think? How do I know I am correct?)
     • Examining consequences and implications (What if I am wrong? What are the consequences if I am?)
     • Questioning the original questions (Why did I think that? Was I correct? What conclusions can I draw from the reasoning process?)
