Rather than relying on superior intellect, he attributes his achievements to a framework of psychological tricks, including the practice of inversion—looking at problems in reverse to identify and avoid hazards.

Together, these principles form a disciplined approach to both investing and decision-making that focuses on avoiding avoidable mistakes.
