Omschrijving
When Susan Leys was growing up, her mother had a phrase that changed the temperature of every room she walked into. Whenever a problem seemed too big, a decision too complicated, or an argument too heated, she would pause, look at whoever needed to hear it, and say three words: "Now, let's just think."
It wasn't a command to think harder. It was an invitation to think differently. To slow down. To step back from the urgency and the noise and give your mind the space to do what it actually does best when you let it.
This book is built on that invitation.
Let's Just Think explores twelve distinct thinking skills that most of us were never formally taught, even though we use some version of them every single day. Critical thinking, the ability to evaluate information and spot what doesn't add up. Solution-focused thinking, which shifts your attention from what went wrong to what might work. Systems thinking, which reveals the hidden connections between things that seem unrelated. Creative and lateral thinking, which find pathways that logic alone would never consider. Strategic thinking, which plans several moves ahead while staying flexible enough to adapt. Design thinking, which builds solutions around real people in real situations. Reflective thinking, which transforms raw experience into genuine wisdom. And intuitive thinking, the quiet inner voice that knows things before you can explain why.
Each of these skills is presented in clear, accessible language with real-world examples drawn from classrooms, boardrooms, kitchen tables, and the kinds of everyday decisions that shape a life. Susan doesn't dress these ideas in academic jargon or bury them under theory. She writes the way her mother spoke: plainly, warmly, and with the confidence that comes from believing people are smarter than they give themselves credit for.
What makes this book different from the crowded shelf of decision-making guides is its starting point. Most books about thinking better assume you need to think faster, process more information, optimize every choice. This book begins with the opposite premise. The best thinking happens when you slow down. When you pause before reacting. When you give yourself permission to say, "I don't know yet, and that's fine. Let me think."
Susan Leys brings more than thirty years of clinical experience in emergency psychiatry and crisis management to this subject, and that background matters more than you might expect. In high-stakes medical environments, the ability to think clearly under pressure isn't a nice-to-have. It's the difference between the right call and the wrong one. Susan has spent her career coaching healthcare professionals through exactly those moments, and the thinking frameworks she teaches here are the same ones that work when the stakes are highest.
But you don't have to work in healthcare to benefit. Whether you're a student trying to cut through information overload, a professional navigating a career decision, a parent figuring out how to handle a difficult conversation with your child, or simply someone who's tired of making the same reactive choices and hoping for different results, the twelve skills in this book will change how you approach problems, decisions, and opportunities for the rest of your life.
The world rewards speed. It celebrates quick reactions, instant opinions, and decisive action. But the best decisions you'll ever make won't come from moving faster. They'll come from those three quiet, powerful words your mother probably never taught you but should have: "Let's just think."
