The Art of Clear Thinking

A Fighter Pilot’s Guide to Making Tough Decisions

Summary

****THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER****

Sharpen your instincts in a world full of uncertainty and risk.


The training to become a fighter pilot is among the most competitive and difficult in the world with fewer than one-in-a-thousand succeeding. Pushing a cutting-edge jet to its limits at over 1,000 mph means that every split-second decision can have catastrophic consequences. Throughout his high-pressure career in the cockpit of the world's most advanced and expensive weapons systems, Hasard Lee learned to master skills at the apex of decision-making theory and practice.

Now he shares gripping firsthand accounts from his time as a fighter pilot, and distills what he's learned into a powerful ACE Helix framework that can be used in business and in life, revealing how to:
• LEARN BETTER AND FASTER
• CULTIVATE MENTAL TOUGHNESS
• DEVELOP THE SKILLS TO QUICKLY ASSESS, CHOOSE, AND EXECUTE
• AND MUCH, MUCH MORE

These combat-tested techniques have already benefitted CEO's, astronauts, CIA agents and many others, and now The Art of Clear Thinking will enable anyone to perform at their peak.

Reviews

  • Lots of good, calm advice. As a mantra, Assess, Choose, Execute could hardly be bettered.
