Elon Musk,
. . . discusses his approach to critical thinking,
. . . using a "First Principles" framework.
https://www.youtube....h?v=NV3sBlRgzTI
First principles thinking,
. . . is based on a physics framework,
. . . the approach actually goes back, "Over 2300 years ago, [as] Aristotle said that,
. . . a first principle is the 'first basis from which a thing is known,' and
. . . that pursuing first principles is the key to doing any sort of systemic inquiry."
That said, it's helpful to put a first principles framework into practice for yourself.

"The takeaway:
. . . With first-principles thinking,
. . . you attack problems from a different angle,
. . . potentially making much better decisions."
