Tools for Life

Learning how to think like a scientist or a philosopher is helpful, but life is made up of much more than brain teasers or problem solving. In this course you’ll learn how to apply the knowledge of critical thinking to your everyday life. Your instructor is Michael Shermer, PhD, who has spent thirty years teaching and writing about the importance of critical thinking, and is passionate about helping people improve their lives using its tools. He’ll cover how to build a strong character and sense of self, as well as how to improve both your work life and personal life. You’ll also gain sage advice about finance, relationships, physical health, and even some tips for sorting out the meaning of life. All the tools have a built-in universality and can be applied to your particular situation. By completing this course, you’ll be well on your way to thinking more carefully and closely about how to live.
