Think Clearly is not a lecture series, a degree, or a productivity system. It is a guided encounter with a handful of habits that make thinking more honest, precise, and alive.
Course outline
What, exactly, are you claiming?
Learn to spot vague language, borrowed certainty, and the questions hidden inside a strong opinion.
PracticeTurn one strong opinion into a precise, testable sentence.
Where does a text become difficult?
Close reading as a way to find the sentence that asks something of you — not merely delivers information.
PracticeAnnotate a short passage and write one honest margin note.
What are we confusing with what?
Use distinctions to think past false choices: confidence and certainty, explanation and excuse, success and status.
PracticeBuild a distinction that clarifies a problem you are actually living with.
What do you believe after the easy answer falls away?
Move from reaction to judgment by making a claim, naming its limits, and meeting its strongest objection.
PracticeWrite a provisional view and the best case against it.
Can another person follow your thinking?
Writing as a way of discovering what you think, not just reporting it after the fact.
PracticeRevise a paragraph until its central sentence can carry the whole piece.
What question deserves to stay open?
End with an intellectual practice you can continue: noticing, reading, writing, and returning to what matters.
PracticePublish a short thinking piece and name the question you will keep.
In the room
Six short lesson packets with close-reading prompts and exercises.
Six live 75-minute discussions with a small, committed group.
